Windlass Steelcrafts

Here's a gorgeous set of "belt tools" inspired by Norse mythology, attractively stored in an "Asgard Creations" gift/display box.

The axe is wrapped in leather and faux fur. The hardwood handle is replete with nordic runes: Raido (journey), Fehu (wealth), Wunjo (joy), Ehwaz (movement), Naudiz (need), Eihwaz (defense), Teiwaz (warrior), Othila (separate), and Thuisaz (giant). The high carbon steel head is forged from 1055 carbon steel and struck with additional Viking symbols and is thick enough for serious chopping and has a sharp edge.

The knife features a raven head pommel, the guard, and the pommel have a rough-forged finish that looks fresh out of the dwarves' smithy. The carbon steel blade comes sharpened and is easy to resharpen after you've used it for a while. The spine of the blade makes this knife suitable for mild chopping as well as precise cutting. This is a medium-sized knife with a generous handle. The grip is high-quality leather wrapped around a full tang and the raised laces do a superb job of providing a secure grasp in wet situations. Includes leather belt sheath. 

The rustic wooden box has leather straps to secure the axe and knife for carrying.

The axe was a formidable sidearm of the medieval knight, especially during the crusades. This stout weapon features a large, expertly sharpened blade, which is pierced with a large cross. The blade has been riveted to the hardwood shaft and has langets for extra support. The grip has been smoothed and wrapped with smooth black leather. All metal parts have been blackened, including the hanging rings at the bottom.

Made by the master smiths of Windlass Steelcrafts. Comes complete with a leather axe head cover.

Battlecry has added every swashbuckler’s and pirate’s favorite sword to its line: the Cutlass. The Cutlass was prized for its compact length, which was more suitable for the tight confines of a ship. This Battlecry Cutlass would do any seafarer proud, with a slightly upswept blade that has a clip point tip that’s perfect for thrusting.

The basket is attractively decorated with cut-outs. Top-quality, genuine leather scabbard with metal throat and chape. Scabbard includes attached frog and belt loop. The 1065 high carbon steel has a darkened, battle-hardened finish, so it’s well protected from the frequent rust spots and stains that occur so often from everyday practice and exposure to the elements.

The blade has a full tang and is tempered to a low 50s RC. This pre-sharpened blade has gone through rigorous testing. The hands-on nature of the manufacturing by master smiths makes this line unique.

Includes a certificate of authenticity signed by each smith that touched your blade through every step of the forging process. Also includes "Battlecry" sticker.

When a new road was being constructed in the Langeid area of southern Norway's Setesdal valley in 2011, workers discovered an ancient Viking burial ground. Along with coins and a broadaxe, an archaeological team exhumed a startling, unique sword that hadn't seen the light of day for over 10 centuries. Thousands of Viking era swords, in various states of completeness, have been discovered in Norway, but not one of them has an elaborately inscribed hilt like the one exhibited by the weapon they found that day.

The pommel and downsloping guard are emblazoned with gold and copper, displaying a mixture of Latin characters, Christian and runic symbols whose exact meanings are lost to time, with some characters apparently reversed for the sake of symmetry. The top of the pommel in portrays a hand holding a cross, possibly representing the hand of Jesus or God. 

This faithful replica is a fully functioning sword with a carbon steel blade that's battle capable like the original. The pommel and guard are made of iron and silver-plated like the original, and the markings are emblazoned in real gold and copper. We've widened the grip slightly for the sake of comfort, but the wire-wrapping is twisted in the same patterns that a prominent Viking hand wielded centuries ago.

The original scabbard had long since deteriorated, so we created one of high-quality leather and laser-engraved it with a pattern created from the pommel imagery. The scabbard comes with its own belt.

This sword rests in the Schloss Erbach Armoury and is a fine example of a high medieval/renaissance sword (classified as an Oakeshott type XVIII A). This is truly a beautiful example of a bastard sword, effective in the cut and the thrust. The steel parts are highly decorative and the high carbon steel blade is lightly hollow ground, giving the sword a great feel with one or two hands. Includes scabbard.
