Very interesting, Phil; Thank-You for sharing that!
(I always love learning-more about how things were made/used throughout History; bring-it-on!!!
Really neat stuff, I love the fact you can even see where they parried against other swords.
These are not parry marks. No trained fighter has parried with the striking edge. You only see something like that in Hollywood. It would have destroyed both blades. Parrying was done with the shield and, if necessary, with the width of the blade by giving the blow a different direction, not by stopping the blow
Thanks. I've always wondered about the wide tangs on seax. I never knew they were thin. It's interesting that the the chipping on the sword blade is mostly one side. One theory is that one side was used for parry and the other for cutting. There are examples of pommels off set and twisted to fit the hand better, and one article claiming one side of some swords was thicker than the other.
Awesome to see that. I showed your channel off to my community today. Harrison McArthur recommended you to me.
lovely stuff
That first sword is beautiful
Cool, i like this kind of videos. Good reference material
Thank you for sharing the photos, they're beautiful!
My wife''s family had Danish roots from the 'Gunn' (Danish 'Gunnar' i.e. 'Spearman or Warrior')Clan.
Fortunately ((to use an English idiom for an "overbearing Mother in Law' ) she wasn't exactly a 'Battle Axe.' though we weren't close.
What''s the difference between 'Outlaws and Inlaws?'
'OUTLAWS' are 'WANTED' LOL
This is great. Thank you! I’ve been wanting to buy a Viking battle axe but am hesitant because I don’t know how to authenticate them. Assuming they’re authentic, is there a sure fire way to make sure it’s a battle axe and not a farm axe? Through the shape or something?
Experts are all I can think of
The leather looks stacked... to me... just noticing
Good stuff man, thanks.
Es ist keine fränkische Wurfaxt (Franziska) zu sehen!

Das ist keine Franziska!
@@ernststefan583 You might want to talk to the Royal Ontario Museum, that is what they called it.
