European 14th Century Arming Sword

European 14th Century Arming Sword

The European 14th Century Arming Sword is a unique piece that has been built to fit the specifications of the original sword. During the European medieval period, the sword was an integral tool in battle and was used by knights in full armour. Designed to be used with a shield or buckler, its cross-shaped guard is a distinctive feature that makes it easily recognisable.

The blade of this sword is made of superior 1080 high carbon steel, tempered to increase its durability and strength. One of the outstanding features of this sword is that the blade has been hand forged by an expert specialized in sword making to replicate the original design, but using better materials. This ensures that the sword will remain firm and sharp over time.

The pommel and its somewhat conical shape are unusual for medieval times, making it unique. The guard, subtly curved towards the blade and tapering before bulging at the ends, provides additional protection. The hilt fits comfortably in the hand and provides a firm grip for handling the sword with ease.

The blade is broad and straight, with a double-edged flattened diamond cross section and a narrow channel to reduce weight. The edges of the blade are elegantly curved and end in a sharp point that allows for impressive cuts and thrusts. The combination of its light size and large blade presence allows for precise and powerful strikes.

The European 14th Century Arming Sword comes with a custom-made scabbard resembling those used centuries ago. The scabbard is made of wood and is covered in leather, and includes a brass ferrule for additional protection. The leather extends up and partially covers the sword's guard, protecting it from scratches and accidental knocks. Additionally, a certificate of authenticity and a care and maintenance kit consisting of Windlass Classic Wax and polishing cloth are included, ensuring that the sword will stay looking new for a long time.
