Of course, a sword’s most important attribute is its blade. The best metal smiths from Windlass Steelcrafts spend hours on each blade, hand forging the high carbon steel for optimal balance, quickness, and durability. This sword is crafted in “reforged” condition, in case you’re not besties with an ancient dwarven blacksmith.

In the ancient Norse Volsunga Saga, the sword Gram first appears as a gift from Odin, offered to the first Viking who can pull it from the trunk of the mighty Barnstokkr tree. Extracted by the warrior Sigmund, the supernaturally sharp sword leads a storied existence, as does he. Sigmund proves to be less than honorable, however. When his lands are attacked by King Lyngi and his army, a disguised Odin confronts him during the melee and breaks the sword, and allows him to be killed in the battle.
