This pommel corresponds with 188 swords in Norway (37%), 58 in Sweden (12%), 43 in Finland (9%), 18 in Denmark (4%), 75 in Western Europe (15%), and 110 in Eastern Europe (23%). The origin can be traced to Merovingian swords, with the three-lobed pommel being based on a pommel with animal heads on the sides. This principle appeared in Scandinavia at the end of the 8th century under the influence of Early-Carolingian swords, and supported by English influence in the 9th century, it remained there until the beginning of the 11th century.

Battle tested, Battle loved! Sword came in weighing exactaly 1.1kg and swings amazingly due to favorable balance. Great for beginners (if you want to be spoiled from the start) and veterans will find it hard to take another sword into the list.
Fast and deadly. Thank you.
Great one handed. Light and fast, best for duel.
This sword swords real nice
One of the lightest and best balanced longswords I’ve ever used. The pommel is very easy to grip with gauntlets and the handle length is perfect for easily controlling the long blade. Though its light this sword can deliver powerful blows aswell.
