Is this the sword you're talking about? It's basically just a prop sword, very heavy and handles like crap. Good for making good pics with though and parts of it are rusting...
Sir William:
No, not that one...and maybe it was Wolf in his 10th or 11th C garb. I recall that one as I have one just like it....as you say, a prop sword and nothing more...but here's the one I'm talking about (went to Wolf's Knight page and grabbed it).
Sir Wolf:
its my deepeeka brass hilted viking sword. i got it vs the del tin because A it was cheaper and B it had as much wrong with it vs the original one as the Del Tin version did. this is the sword that i peened down the tang on. mine is pretty sold, a tad blade heavy but i would hit you with it and not worry too much save the rat tale breaking where the screw is welded on.
Sir William:
That's the one...it was pretty, I'll give it that. Wish I hadn't sold it!
Lord Dane:
Peening is where it's at. 8)
