15th Century Long Sword

This type of medieval sword with a longer grip, and a tapered blade with a strong spine and a short fuller, has a point of balance closer to the hilt that was popular during the 14th & 15th centuries.

The blade design, which can be found in use as far back as the 3rd century BC, makes it the longest lived blade design in the western world.

This is a classic example of an Oakeshott Type XVIa sword. It is also available with a ribbed leather grip. Equally at home on the hip of a no-nonsense soldier or a practical knight interested in pure function, this sword will exceed your expectations.

This sword is hand forged from 5160 high carbon steel and heat-treated to a very tough spring with harder edges. Harmonically balanced and very lively in the hand, this hand forged longsword is a classic example of an Oakeshott Type XVIa.

A scabbard is not included but may be purchased seperately. Email me for details.
