Viking sword parts

Now THAT is a fascinating question, and circumstance!!! and by the way welcome to the forum.....outstanding entrance Janis. I must admit that here obviously we always see swords intact but in the case of these components, even detached they are every bit as exciting as the full sword itself.
Each one deserves full attention as to what period, region and what exiting history may reside within each item whether full sword, or part of it.

Thank you so much for your posting! and I'm sure those well informed on these matters will advance soon!
