High quality sword for combat re-enactment.,a sturdy yet light, well-balanced battle-ready sword 

The sword features the typical characteristics of a traditional two-handed sword from the European late Middle Ages, and represents  an archetype of the Late Medieval Longsword. This classic example of a cut-and-thrust long sword is patterned after the arming swords wielded by 15th century knights.

The long, double-edged high carbon steel blade with flattened diamond cross-section sports both a gentle profile and distal taper towards the point. It is full-tanged and riveted to the pommel. The blunt edges are approx. 2.5 mm / 1.5 mm thick, and the tip is rounded.
The cruciform hilt is composed of a long wooden core grip with brown leather overlay, a straight steel cross guard, and an elongated octagonal scent-stopper pommel, also made of steel, with concave facets and rounded top.
This two-handed medieval sword combines optimum weight distributionagility, and secure hold with elegant simplicity.

The  sword comes complete with a  scabbard made of wood and covered with brown leather. The tip is reinforced with a blued steel chape, and at the throat, the leather extends upward and covers part of the guard at the ricasso. The scabbard is also equipped with an adjustable carrying belt (shoulder belt).

This two-handed sword is not only ideal for combat re-enactment, stage fighting or sparring, but also as a collectible, decoration/display piece or prop, 

The steel used  is not rust-proof and might show slight surface tarnishing in places. It is recommended that you  maintain the blade on a regular basis, for example using a  Universal Oil, which is ideally suited for steel care.

Specs may slightly vary from piece to piece.
