I need some help to find historical facts about viking swords. Some in my RPG group claim that viking swords were hardly more than sharpened steel bars and that it happened in combat that they had to stop to fight to bend a sword straight again.
I need to know if this claim is true or not. (Im pretty sure I read somewhere, if it was swordforum.com or thehaca I dont know, that viking swords was generally of pretty high quality.)
Anyways, any help would be appreciated and please include links for sources if you have any.
