Key Features That Set It Apart
High-Mirror Polished Stainless Steel Blade
The core of this historic weapon is its 31-inch blade, showcasing a premium, high-mirror polish that beautifully defines its long, elegant fuller. This central groove was historically engineered by medieval armorers to drastically reduce the sword's weight without diminishing its structural integrity, resulting in rapid, fluid cutting actions. Crafted from low-maintenance stainless steel, it effortlessly resists rust, corrosion, and tarnish, giving you a pristine display piece that requires no tedious oiling routines.
Authentic High-Medieval Wheel Pommel & Guard
This masterpiece draws its distinct character from its highly accurate hilt configuration, meticulously modeled after surviving 13th-century English artifacts. It features a robust straight crossguard paired with a thick, solid wheel-style pommel. This traditional hilt architecture serves as a critical counterweight, shifting the point of balance back toward the hand to ensure lightning-fast recovery and exceptional agility in close-quarters combat.
Extended Leather-Wrapped Metal Grip
Experience a secure, historically authentic hold. Unlike shorter handles of the era, the robust 8-inch hilt provides ample room and superior leverage, balancing the blade beautifully. Featuring a heavy cast-metal base completely wrapped in tightly bound, textured genuine leather, this layout ensures a highly reliable, non-slip grip that feels substantial, balanced, and remarkably responsive.
Included Premium Leather Scabbard
Protect your historic investment with pride. This sword comes complete with a custom-fitted, genuine leather scabbard built for safe storage, smooth transport, or seamless integration into your medieval knight armor kits, sword belts, or wall hangers.
A Legacy of Chivalry: In the 13th century, the arming sword was far more than a weapon; it was a sacred symbol of a knight's vows, justice, and social status. Wielded by the elite warrior class across England and continental Europe, its broad cutting profile and sturdy construction were optimized for dealing devastating blows against heavy mail armor, making it the most trusted companion of the high-medieval warrior.
