Hi Trond, welcome to the forum.
I believe we have corresponded in the past on the subject of Danish weaponry.
I frankly envy your collection. Mine is meek by comparison, but I have collected many Danish, Swedish and Norwegian items in the past. Love the functional simplicity that characterizes most of these weapons.
While I strongly dislike pirates and vikings in general, I do admire the latter's weaponry and accoutrements. The british helmet from Sutton-Loo and Drakkars for example, are both beautiful and terrifying.
Once again,
Welcome
Manuel Luis

As a collector of naval items of the pirate/privateer kind, this type as I understand it did make a popular weapon for some. Very nice...
