Medieval Tewkesbury sword, 15th century.

The history of the Tewkesbury Sword dates back to the time of the Wars of the Roses, also known as the English Civil War. These wars were brutal and fought for decades between the noble houses of York and Lancaster for control of the throne of England. The Tewkesbury Sword is a reminder of one of the most important battles of this time: the Battle of Tewkesbury, which took place in May 1471.

Although this medieval sword is not a true replica of the weapon that was used in battle, it perfectly represents the characteristics that would be expected of a sword from the late Middle Ages. The blade is long and double-edged and is made of END45 spring steel, a material that guarantees its durability.

The vessel is composed of a wooden handle with black leather winding, a flattened steel bar and an elongated six-faceted plug, also made of steel. The paring piece is 23 cm long and 0.5 cm thick and is decorated with a cut-out cross at each end. The sword is delivered with a black wooden and genuine leather scabbard that protects it from damage and abrasion.

It should be noted that due to its design and features, this sword is not suitable for display combat. However, it can be used as a collector's item or as a decorative item. This same sword is also available as a combat version with thicker cutting edges and a rounded tip.

The Tewkesbury Sword is a classic example of medieval craftsmanship. It is a beautiful and durable sword that represents an important moment in English history. If you want to have a piece of the history of the Wars of the Roses in your home, this sword is the perfect choice.
