Product description
New from Red Dragon (known for their high quality HEMA plastic training swords) is this line of high-level replica historical swords. These swords are supplied including a leather scabbard and are made of high quality steel and hardness so that they are suitable for intensive training.
This sword is a replica of a 13th century historical bastard sword. This has a size between a single-handed and a hand-and-a-half sword. The grip is slightly larger than that of a single-handed sword, so that during hard strikes you can place an extra hand on the grip to put more power behind it.
This bastard sword has a wood scabbard wrapped in brown leather and a brown leather grip. The edge is 1-2 mm thick. In addition, the blade is tempered and made of 1075 carbon steel. It has a core with a steel hardness of 45 HRC and the edge has a hardness of 50 HRC. Due to the two different hardnesses, the sword is flexible and less brittle than comparable models. This sword is a combination of excellent craftsmanship and years of HEMA experience.
The sword is best suited for cutting and is durable.
