SZCO Supplies Viking Sword

Awesome sword! Great quality, highly recommend.

Shipping was slow, but arrived intact.. sword is nicer then expected!! Feels decent in hand, no loose parts, and sheath fits it nicely.. perfect for renfaire attire.. if your looking for a wall hanger, or renfaire this would be great for the price!!

Got this for my first renaissance fair that I'm going to in a few weeks. Based on the photos and description, I couldn't tell if the sheath had a built in belt loop. I can now confirm that it does, so you do not need to buy a separate sword frog/holster. The sword is not super tight in the sheath so it could slide out at the right angle. The edges of the sword are rounded but the tip is a bit pointy. Not sharp but about what you would expect from a metal corner.The sword definitely has some heft to it and is not balanced well for only one hand, so I guess be wary of that if you have any issues with arm or wrist strength. But since it's just a prop, it's meant only for display anyway. Hopefully there won't be any weight issues with it hanging from my belt.It came wrapped very tightly and thoroughly in several layers of plastic and bubble wrap. There is grease on all of the metal surfaces that is messy when you first unpackage it. There are a few reviews complaining about this that don't realize the grease is important to keep it from rusting during storage and shipping. I got it mostly cleaned up pretty easily with just some paper towels and 70% IPA screen wipes. I'll probably go back over the grooves with a brush and some degreaser or dish soap.I think a number of the people that wrote poor reviews for this sword don't understand the concept of "you get what you pay for." It's a $40 metal prop sword. Of course it's not perfect. Sure the leather has some scratches or tiny tears, and the metal has a few blemishes and if you look down from the tip, you'll see that the blade is not perfectly straight. But I highly doubt anyone else will look closely enough to notice and judge the minor cosmetic issues.

Great sword for the price, but when it got here it was covered in a sticky liquid that I had to wash of, gross. But still a great sword

Bought for fun photo ops. This sword is priced right.

This item worked great for my Renaissance Fair costume. I went as an Ironteeth witch and received alot of compliments.

Not a half bad sword for the price, arrives blunt. The handle/blade is slightly too large for a one handed sword yet its too short to fit both hands so its kind of a mess in that department. and the blade isn't the most sturdy since I ordered 2 for sparring. one broke and the other is hanging on by a thread and is now just for decoration. good purchase if you intend on very lightly sparring, and or decoration but as a heavy use sword. I wouldn't recommend, but overall pretty decent for its price but I would recommend Kult of Athena.

Very nice replica Viking sword. It'll go nice with my Viking costume for Renaissance fairs!
