Product description
Introducing the Signature Series by Windlass! These are some of our all-time favorites, reissued by Windlass Steelcrafts® with several upgrades. The blade features an improved distal taper, making the sword livelier and quicker. The scabbard now has a wooden core under the leather exterior. The grip uses leather dimpled by a historically authentic "wet-wrap" process — fine cord is tightly wrapped around a wet leather grip. When it dries, remove the cord and the leather is left attractively indented, giving you improved texture and grip.
This sword goes by several names — War Sword, Great Sword, Long Sword, and even Two-Hand Sword — causing some confusion among collectors. Whatever you call it, it was a popular weapon. The great length gives it both reach and power. As the length increases, velocity increases substantially. The long ricasso makes it even more formidable. Grip past the guard and the sword shortens, letting you use it like a short spear. Holding the blade at two separate points makes every thrust more solid and controlled.
The Sword of Roven is as formidable as the originals. Made from high carbon steel tempered to a tough spring, it features a cord-wrapped wooden grip covered in brownish black leather, with a steel pommel and guard. Comes complete with a leather scabbard. An interesting sword type that belongs in every sword collection.
