This classic arming sword features a hand-forged aesthetic and a light-but-bladey presence, flowing through guards beautifully and willingly. It is a versatile companion, ideal for work with a shield or buckler, as well as on its own.
Its short grip of medium width gives a good level of grip for small-to-medium hands, particularly in cutting motions, and its tapered, uncanted pommel makes it a great choice for left-handed, right-handed and ambidextrous users.
It features a short, downturned crossguard and a classic wheel pommel, both of which have an antique finish. The oak grip is bound with linen thread and dark brown kidskin.
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.
