This dashing arming sword is willing and versatile, with enough character in the blade to work well on its own or with a buckler.
There is a slight cant to the pommel that improves comfort and alignment when wielded in the right hand, as well as an offset tang to aid edge alignment.
The classic design features blackened furniture and an oak grap wrapped in dark brown kidskin. The slightly downturned flat-section quillons flare to the terminals, and the wheel pommel sits comfortably against the hand.
It is optimised for right-handed use, and would suit a wielder with larger hands, and a palm size of approximately 10cm across.
Please note: this sword is sold as seen. If you are inspired to create your own design, please contact us to discuss a custom commission.
