Product description

This flamberge is modeled after a German original from 1570.

The two-handed flame-bladed sword is called a Flammenschwert in German (literally “flame sword”). These swords closely resemble the Zweihänders; the only difference is the design of the blade. The wavy blade design is both decorative and functional, as it produces unpleasant vibrations when parrying. However, a wavy blade is not more effective at cutting than a straight one.

One advantage over straight-bladed swords is that it distributes the force of a strike more evenly, making it less likely to break. It could also intimidate an opponent in a duel, potentially discouraging them from grabbing the blade. Like other Zweihänders, flamberges were used by Landsknechts in the 16th century.

This sword is 144 cm long, with a blade approximately 100 cm in length, and features an additional crossbar. It has the characteristic wavy shape from which the flamberge takes its name. The sword has an iron cross-guard and a wooden grip. It weighs 3.8 kg.
