It is believed to have been created in Eastern Europe in the second half of the 10th century, but it is unclear how it got its name or how it became one of the most important imperial insignia in the history of the Roman Empire. However, what is known for certain is that its exceptional craftsmanship and sumptuousness of its dignified ornaments represent the Emperor Charlemagne, a dazzling, sophisticated and outstanding figure in human history.

One of the legends surrounding this sword is that it had been found in the year 1000 in the opening of the tomb of Charlemagne. Although it has subsequently been proven that it could never have been in the possession of the first Holy Roman Emperor, it nevertheless remains a part of the Imperial Crown and the Imperial Spear among the most important insignia of the Roman Kaiser, which is now preserved in the treasury of the Hofburg in Vienna.

The detailed replica made by Hanwei has perfectly replicated the original. On the high carbon steel blade, a gold leaf fillet with intricate engraving is incorporated to enhance the sword's appeal. Moreover, its balanced blade and detailed ornamentation add to its aesthetic charm.

The ray skin wrapped handle and gold plated fittings as well as the round ornament on the pommel give the sword an elegant and balanced appearance. The leather wrapped gilded wood sheath and stitching make for an exceptionally charming and elegant unit, making this sword a real treasure for any sword collector.

Its overall length is approximately 89 cm, with a blade length of about 71.1 cm and a handle length of about 18.9 cm. Weighing 907 g, this sword is perfect for any medieval sword lover who wants to own a unique and valuable piece of history.
