Viking Spears from Dark Knight Armoury

The most common and important weapon to a Viking warrior was the spear. Viking spears have metal heads usually on wooden shafts of 6 to 10 feet long. The head of a Viking spear was about 7 to 24 inches long with a tendency towards longer heads in the late Viking age. Some of the Viking spear heads had wings called krokspjot or barbed spear. Viking warrior used the spears for both throwing and thrusting with one hand. Dark Knight armoury has many functional and authentitic spears heads available. We carry the Viking thrusting spear, Viking throwing spear, short bladed spear and the long war spear in our collection of Viking spears.
