Product description
Red Dragon — known for their high-quality HEMA plastic training swords — now offers this line of high-level replica historical swords. Each sword ships with a leather scabbard and is made from high-quality steel, hardened for intensive training.
This sword replicates a 13th-century bastard sword. It falls between a single-handed and a one-and-a-half-handed sword in size. The grip is slightly larger than a standard one-hander, so you can slide a second hand onto it for extra power when striking hard.
The scabbard is wooden, wrapped in brown leather, and the grip is brown leather too. The edge measures 1–2 mm thick. The blade is tempered and made from 1075 carbon steel, with a core hardness of 45 HRC and edge hardness of 50 HRC. Those two different hardness levels make the sword flexible and less brittle than comparable models. The result is a combination of excellent craftsmanship and years of HEMA experience.
This sword is best suited for slashing and holds up exceptionally well to hard use.
