Weapons and Armor in the Viking age!

[@randelldarky3920]

The Vikings did nothing worse than what others were doing. They just did a really good job at it. We all would do things during times of desperation, that We normally wouldn't do.

Yxengaard seems just the right place to imagine Nordic life during the Viking period. You do a fine job of displaying your weapons and armor and explaining their development and usage.

The sword is awesome and goes perfectly with the shield, a beautiful pair to display or if needed quickly deployed.

I find it very interesting how weapon technology seems to have remained consistent across the world at any given time. In the old time, people used similar stone tools and flint points World Wide.

Axes were usually made of low-carbon steel for the body, with a high-carbon steel cutting edge forge-welded in

That’s right Mike 😁👍🏻 and thanks for pointing that out See you again soon 🏕🔥🇩🇰 Tom

Great video my friend. Almost all the fighters would have had a head covering of some kind. Either provided by the lord or by themselves. Farmers called up to fight might have only hardened leather but they would have had something. 80 plus percent of the wounds found on bodies were to the lower legs with the shield and the head coverings the legs were the most exposed body part. Another weapon used by the poorer classes was the war hammer, not the mace with steel but just a long wooden handle with a large wooden head used to batter and break bones to take a man out of the fight. Spears, axes and hammers could be furnished either by the lord or by the warrior himself. Also arrows were rarely shot in large volleys like in the movies they would have not wasted them in such a fashion. They would have been aimed at individual targets.

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us 😉👍🏻 Good information that shows how the Vikings may have protected themselves and fought in battles. Stay safe my friend and hope too see you again on my next one 🏕🔥🌲Tom

The Saxe was used in the shield wall to stab the legs......arming jackets were worn under chain mail, as well as, an arming cap worn under the helmet.

[@cimbrerbushcraft-vikingheritag]

Thank you so much Bob for sharing this with us 😉👍🏻 and for watching my videos See you again soon 🏕🔥🇩🇰 Tom

[@Bridgercraft]

There's no evidence the vikings wore arming jackets/caps, they were a later invention. The seax would've been carried by pretty much every man and was basically an every day utility knife. However, in a close combat situation it more than serves!

Well I got to make some points here. We know from the Bayeux Tapestry that dane axes or great axes were on averages around chest height sow 2 meters is really pushing it far. Vikings did have a type of proto hellbard though we call the long axe which is a long axe blade with a top pointing up like a spear tip with a lenght which would put the intire head of the axe over the guy's head. Also hand axes were not the most common weapon for vikings. Spears were used much more, cause they would have used spear and shield combo. The way you suggest they used spears was done with a specialized type of spear with big pointy wings sticking out the side and a longer blade that was more usefull for cutting and slicing then the normal spear. Axes were the back up if the spear broke. Seaxes were not like swords at all and more like daggers that could get really big. Helemets were far more common then you make it sound like 50% of prof soldiers aka the type of people that would have gone viking would most likely have worn one, it's body armor that was extreemly rare. Quilted armor like gambeson is really not know for sure if it was used, but extreemly likely and hand armor of the Quilted type sow mittons dito. Leather used for combad looked different from the modern type and would be more plastic like in structure, sow not like what you are showing at all and defenitly not the style of leather mittons you showed. They would have used something more like the type of gloves you use when you hold a bird of pray, or like I already said something more like big protectif mittons. I also missed you talking about the possible use of splint armor for the arms and legs, wiggas for the legs, and the possiblty of viking lamellar armor. A lot of your video was close, but just not preciesly there.

Itwouldnt surprise me as a breaking news that the Vikings may very well invented the wheel 🌄

[@benyaminlarsen9359]

is that paint on the wood it self or an raw hide or ohter thing cover it ? also noice video

[@cimbrerbushcraft-vikingheritag]

I painted it on the wood 😊👍🏻 You can glue fabrics on first if you want to but I decided not to do that 🏕🔥🌲 Tom

[@benyaminlarsen9359]

@@cimbrerbushcraft-vikingheritag very fair looks nice like paint job I was lead to believe it was never Baer wood though

[@ordyhorizonrivieredunord712]

Did the Vikings invent the poulie? as to raise the sails with a rope? They were master shipbuilders and craftsmen who invented pretty much everything as far as navigation and crafts. ⚓🗺

[@cimbrerbushcraft-vikingheritag]

Yeah the Vikings were great sailors and fearless travellers on open seas 😊👍🏻 but I have read that it was the Egyptian that invented the Poulie long before the Viking traveled in Europe 🏕🔥🇩🇰 Tom

[@ordyhorizonrivieredunord712]

thanks for the info, for sure they were great ship builders around Mediterranean sea so were the Northern people as they had wood as they could build chariots and invented the wheel. Fascinating to be thinking about things thousands of ears ago 🧿🎡

[@cimbrerbushcraft-vikingheritag]

Yeah I love that too Mike 🤗 Stay safe my friend and be well. See you again soon 😁 Tom
