Product description
This one-handed sword belongs to a performance-oriented series, designed by Gus Trim. The blade has the classic diamond-shaped cross-section of Oakeshott type XVIII, characteristic of the short arming swords of the 15th century. The stiff blade and sharp tip were made to precisely penetrate the openings in armour, but the sword also cuts excellently.
The blade is hand-forged from differentially hardened 9260 spring steel and has a satin finish. The fittings are made of high-quality stainless steel. The grip has a sturdy wood core, is wrapped with cord and covered with textured leather. Includes a leather-covered wood scabbard with stainless steel tip.
This weapon is intended for collectors, as decoration and as a historical accessory for re-enactment and living history. The blade is not suitable for combat or sparring.
