What makes this piece unique
- The blade is engraved along its entire length: flowing interlace, not just a simple polish. The casting is fine for a thirty-centimeter object.
- A cross-adorned scabbard: two red straps crossed over black. This is the language of chivalry and crusades, not Nordic.
- The most affordable miniature: it does not have a stand, but it does come with its scabbard and ring.
- It is a display piece: thirty centimeters of cast alloy, with blunt point and edges. It is neither a weapon nor a costume piece.

Did you know?
The straight crossguard sword—a simple bar perpendicular to the blade—became standard in Europe around the year 1000, and it is a direct descendant of Viking swords. The transition is visible in the typologies: Viking Age blades had a short, thick guard, almost like a block; those of the 12th century lengthened the quillons until they formed a true cross. This is not just a stylistic evolution—it is the arrival of the gauntlet, which allows for a finger to be placed over the guard, and of Christian symbolism, which sees a cross in the object. The Viking form is the mother of this one.
To learn more, our anatomy of the Viking sword allows you to compare this design with that of a blade actually forged in the North.
