Details

The original Suontaka sword was found in a woman's grave in Finland. The grave dates from C 1100AD however, the sword form suggests a much earlier date of origin, possibly as early as mid 10th Century AD.

Our stunning version of this piece features a highly detailed knotwork pommel, guard, grip band and inserts. All have been lavishly plated in rich copper. The tough 1065 high carbon steel blade has a full tang and is fully tempered, then peened over the pommel.

Excellent value.Review by Spike

Needs polishing if you want the metal fittings shiny, but comes up looking very nice and you have the option to leave it looking more aged if you prefer. Good quality with no loose bits or other issues, it stands up to close inspection unlike some display swords. It's a nice touch having the baldrick attached which makes it wearable if you're so inclined, but depending on how you plan to display the sword be aware that it might get in the way since it can't be removed.

If you like the look of this sword then you won't regret buying it. Definitely recommended. (Posted on 11/07/2023)

I love this Sword ,, feels good in the hand and a good weight.
The Hilt is exquisite ,, really is beautifully done - pommel and guard are really nice and it makes a stunning display piece.
The Scabbard is a little bit disappointing in as much as it feels a little flimsy , however the fittings are beautiful and polish up beautifully and as a display sword it looks wonderful.
This is excellent value.
Customer service as always is superb. (Posted on 13/01/2022)
