Marto, Oslo Norse Viking Sword

Norwegian Viking sword Oslo, Marto

The Viking sword was the favorite weapon of Scandinavian warriors. It was one of the most commonly used weapons during the Viking Age. The Viking sword was a truly effective weapon on the battlefield. Overpopulation in their homelands is one of the most cited reasons for this population explosion that took place in Norway and Denmark in the 7th and 8th centuries, as well as the gradual establishment of stable rule in almost all Western Europe, particularly on the continent after the founding of Charlemagne's empire, brought about a remarkable increase in European trade, which meant opportunities for piracy. Their weaponry consisted of a sword or axe, a spear and a shield, while most men carried a short knife at their belt. Of these weapons, the sword was the most popular, and this item was viewed with some respect, especially in the case of ancient swords passed down from generation to generation or looted from burial mounds.
