Early 20th C Viking Sutton Hoo type pattern welded 3 twisted core.

OK, so it's newly made, but I love it because I speced it out and commisioned it from Jim Hrisoulas to be his interpretation of a Sutton Hoo quality sword. It is much longer then your standard Viking Sword. See yardstick photo, but would be appropriate size and weight for a large viking with hands the size of a small Italian(me).
