Historical Note:
What you see on tv and movies is not how swords were historically used during the Viking Age. One would only parry with their sword in the gravest of situations, and even then they would try to parry with the flat of the blade rather than the edge. The swords used in movies have very thick edges and could never be sharpened. A real sword with a sharp edge cannot parry like in the movies without being damaged. To defend against blows they would either block with shield or dodge the blow.
