Delight in the Langeid Viking Sword, Windlass


Langeid Viking Sword, Windlass
In 2011, during the construction of a new road in Langeid, in the Setesdal valley in southern Norway, workers stumbled upon an ancient Viking grave. In addition to coins and an axe, a team of archaeologists unearthed an astonishing and unique sword that had not seen the light of day for over 10 centuries. Thousands of Viking-era swords have been discovered in Norway in varying conditions, but none have a hilt with such ornate inscriptions as the weapon found that day.
Whether the sword is native to Norway or possibly an Anglo-Saxon weapon acquired elsewhere is a matter of interpretation, but there is no doubt that it is a costly example of deadly art cherished by the Viking warrior who wielded it. The pommel and the downward-sloping crossguard are decorated with gold and copper and show a mix of Latin, Christian, and runic symbols, the exact meaning of which has been lost to time, with some characters apparently swapped for symmetry.
br
The Latin letters are among the most difficult to interpret, but they may be significant abbreviations of Christian messages. They could be anything from Bible verses to the adoration of Christ in Greek or Latin, which are roughly equivalent to Christograms. A cross or an X may represent Xristos (Christ). The R appears in several places and could represent Rex (King). The H appears once and its meaning is unclear. The E symbol is depicted in various orientations, but its meaning is also mysterious. A character that appears to be a rune could be a stylized S. The top of the pommel shows a hand holding a cross, possibly representing the hand of Jesus or God. The cross in the hand along with the S sign could, if interpreted loosely, be read as Xristos Salvator (Christ the Savior), but then it would represent a mix of Greek and Latin.
Interestingly, the hilt of this sword is one of the shortest found to date, just a hair over 3-1/2 inches. Short hilts are very common on Viking swords that, like this one, have a strongly downward-sloping guard. The owner had to place their little finger on the pommel or possibly wrap their index finger and thumb around the crossguard (as a side note, Viking warriors were known to slide the pommel in their palms while swinging to increase the effectiveness of a strike).
This faithful replica has a sharp carbon steel blade. The pommel and crossguard are made of iron and plated like the original; the markings are decorated in gold and copper. The handle is slightly flared for comfort, but the wire wrap is twisted following the same patterns that a prominent Viking hand swung centuries ago.
The original scabbard was long since in poor condition, so Windlass made a high-quality leather scabbard and laser-engraved it with a pattern taken from the image on the pommel. The scabbard comes with its own belt.
Manufactured by Windlass Steelcrafts.
This sword is designed as a collector's item or decorative object and is also ideal as an accessory, for example, to complete your costume.
