Overview

Norman Sword- Stage Combat Version - Deepeeka

The Normans were descended from Vikings, and from them they inherited their thirst for exploration and great skill with arms. These traits, combined with cunning statecraft and an ability to connect themselves to wider Europe made them among the most successful conquerors of their age. Normandy, the land of their namesake was taken from the French after King Charles the Simple realized he did not have the power to oust the Northmen - Instead he made them his vassals, granting them the coastal lands that would become Normandy. Norman society created many surplus sons who were great warriors - these extra sons were also disenfranchised from their inheritances. A potent mix that caused generations of Normans to carve out their own kingdoms. With the sword they would take England and establish a foothold onto Wales and Ireland. They would expel the Moors from Sicily, and from there join the 1st Crusade, where ambitous Normans would found several of the Crusader kingdoms and principalities.

This Norman sword belies its Viking heritage; The blade with a shallow taper and wide fuller has the form of its ancestor swords. The crossguard and wheel pommel are simple and utilitarian in form. The wide blade with heft makes the Norman sword a brutal hack and chop sword.

This Norman sword by Deepeeka has a blade crafted from tempered high carbon steel. The crossguard and pommel are of steel and the grip is tightly wrapped with spiralled brown leather. It comes with a wood-core scabbard covered in brown leather with an integrated wooden suspension loop. The chape on the scabbard is of steel.
Leather grip can vary from brown to very dark brown.

    Good enough After having this sword for a year the pommel broke off. I beat this sword up pretty good within this year, lots and lots of blade on blade contact. The strike that broke the pommel off was blade on blade. All of this in mind id still recommend this sword. My 4 star rating comes mostly from the price. For the price the sword works and does sword thing but won’t win any beauty pageants. It’s fairly heavy compared to other swords of the style. Then again I’m a big guy and wanted a heavy sword to practice with. Out off the box the cross guard was off center and the pommel wasn’t quite symmetrical. Back to the pommel breaking off, it took hits to the pommel before and kept trucking on. If you’re a beginner and want a sword that won’t break the bank, I’d suggest this sword. I’m going to try and fix my sword but if I can’t ill update this review
