👉 The Cod Weapon, also known as the Cod Sword or Cod Dagger, is a unique and historically significant weapon from the medieval period, primarily used by the Vikings. It features a distinctive elongated blade with a broad, flat edge, often adorned with intricate engravings or runic inscriptions. The weapon's name derives from its association with the Cod of the Law, a legal document that may have influenced its design. Typically, the Cod Weapon was about 30 to 40 centimeters long and weighed around 300 grams, making it both versatile for close combat and effective for slashing and piercing attacks. Its design allowed for a powerful thrusting strike while also providing a means to deliver precise, cutting blows.
