Runes reads "Dorrudr Kraptr" (Power of the god Odin) Dorrudr other name of Odin

Metal: Sterling Silver (925)
Weight: approx. 11 g (0.38 oz)

The Valknut, an emblem that resonates deeply within the tapestry of Norse culture, captivates with its profound symbolism. Derived from the combination of "valr," signifying a fallen warrior, and "knut," representing a knot or entanglement, the name "Valknut" encapsulates its essence as "The Knot of the Slain Warrior." This evocative translation reveals the emblem's connection to the valiant souls who have met their end in battle. Furthermore, the Valknut assumes various names, including Odin's knot, Hrungnir's heart, and the Heart of Vala, each imbuing it with unique significance. Unmistakably, it holds a profound association with Odin, the supreme deity of Norse mythology, who reigns not only as the god of war but also as the guardian of death.

Archaeological discoveries frequently present the Valknut alongside depictions of Odin, often accompanied by symbols of ravens or wolves, his steadfast companions. This consistent visual portrayal offers compelling evidence that firmly establishes the emblem's rightful connection to Odin himself.

The emblem's association with the God of Death has led to the Valknut being revered as the symbol of the "Cult of the Dead," a designation that carries immense meaning. It represents the acknowledgement and reverence for courageous individuals who, in the prime of their lives, selflessly sacrificed themselves for the betterment of their clans.

The intricate design of the Valknut, with its interwoven pattern that can be traced by a single, unbroken line, evokes a connection to the realm of mental manipulation. The Norse aptly named this artful deception "Seidr," a form of witchcraft or magic that invoked both fear and awe. Seidr allowed practitioners to alter the perceptions of observers, creating illusions and visions that obscured reality. Notably, Odin himself was the master of this mysterious craft, holding the esteemed position as its primary practitioner.

In the chaos of battle, it was believed that Odin could impose mental restraints upon his enemies, clouding their minds and sowing terror within their ranks. Conversely, the power of the Valknut could also be harnessed to grant Viking warriors clarity of thought and purpose amidst the tumultuous battleground. This emblem, with its intricate design and ties to the enigmatic art of Seidr, embodies the essence of Odin's dominion over war and death, serving as a potent symbol of Norse mythology's depth and complexity.
