The wings attached to the beak (of Frankish origin) prevented the point from penetrating too deeply and also served as an effective parrying device.\u003cbr\u003e                                                            \u003cbr\u003eThe decorated Hanwei spearheads designed by Paul Chen reflect the creative blend of Viking arts and crafts. Back then, weapons were often decorated with elaborate patterns, which could be created using the \u003ci\u003eniello\u003c\/i\u003e technique. An alloy of several metals (especially silver) was mixed with sulfur.\u003cbr\u003e The mixture was rubbed into pre-scratched patterns and then fired. The engraved areas treated with this mixture remained black, and the remaining surface was polished to a high gloss. Although there is less alchemy involved in the decorative pattern-making process used by hanwei, the result is still a lustrous and durable \u003ci\u003eniello-\u003c\/i\u003e like effect.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eImportant information:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Only the spearhead (without shaft) is included in the delivery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This spearhead is hollow and therefore non-functional.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKey Features:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Viking shock weapon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - With niello-type finish\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e- Axle support with a diameter of approx. 2.5 cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDetails:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Total length: approx. 16 inches.\u003cbr\u003e - Blade length: approx. 24.8 cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Blade thickness at base: approx. 18 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Weight: approx. 624 g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Manufacturer number: xh2038\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Specifications may vary slightly from copy to copy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt \u003cstrong\u003eTienda Medieval,\u003c\/strong\u003e we have thousands of medieval and other period products.
