Norman sword with scabbard

Norman sword with scabbard - The weapon of the conquerors

The Norman sword is an impressive example of medieval martial arts. Its history goes back to the 10th and 11th centuries, when the Normans under the leadership of Rollo and later William the Conqueror conquered large parts of Europe with their double-edged swords and their unbridled lust for battle. This weapon became particularly famous after the Battle of Hastings in 1066, in which William and his warriors conquered England.

High-quality workmanship and authentic design

This battle-ready interpretation from Cold Steel® is based on historical models and combines traditional features with modern manufacturing techniques. The long, wide blade is made of robust 1060 carbon steel, which ensures high stability and edge retention. In order to optimally distribute the weight and create a perfect balance, a wide fuller has been worked into the blade, which also increases its resistance to strong blows.

The handle is made of wood and covered with high-quality leather, which provides a secure grip. The downward-curved quillons with chisel-shaped ends and the striking three-pointed pommel not only provide an authentic look, but also offer additional protection and balance. The pommel can also be used as a striking weapon, a tried and tested technique in historical battles.

The scope of delivery includes a leather-covered wooden scabbard with steel fittings, which optimally protects the Norman sword and presents it in style.

Historical background

The Norman sword developed from the classic Viking swords and became the favoured weapon of knights and warriors of the High Middle Ages. Its long, sharp blade made it suitable for both powerful slashes and targeted thrusts against the armour of the enemy. This weapon proved particularly effective in the Norman campaigns against England and southern Italy .
