Kingston Arms Viking Sword for reenactment and stage combat. Blade is forged from 9260 spring steel, is tempered to around 50 HRC, and has a blunt rounded tip with 2mm edge. Guard and pommel are stainless steel. The guard features the King-Peen system. King-Peen is essentially a steel tab on the guard under the grip that is pinned through the tang of the sword. This process keeps the guard from getting loose after a lengthy battle without compromising the strength of the hilt. The pommel is pressed into place and hot peened. Combine these two processes and you get a sword that rings like a bell when struck. Grip is cord wrapped leather with an oval cross section and slight barrel shape for comfort. Comes with leather wrapped, wood core scabbard with stainless steel chape.
