SH2000 -- Sir William Marshall Sword |
|||
|
Key Features:
|
Our single-hand
Marshall Sword sets (SH2000, SH2001 - Damascus) new standards of quality
and authenticity in broadsword construction. The sword is based on an
original, now in a British musuem, used by one of England’s finest
knights, Sir William Marshall, who served the crown faithfully under Henry
II, Richard the Lionheart and Jack Lackland. The single-hand Marshall
Sword is available with either a forged high-carbon steel blade (Model
SH2000) or a forged - folded Swedish powder steel blade (Model SH2001).
Both blades are identical in handling characteristics and both are
tempered to a tough HRC 52. The blade section features a central ridged
fuller and full-length distal taper - a tough test for the bladesmith but
resulting in a superb combination of speed and strength. The grip is
leather wrapped and laced and the guard and pommel are elegant in their
functional simplicity. The scabbard is leather-covered with steel mounts.
Truly a sword for the connoisseur. Price $275.90

SH2033 -- Edward III Sword |
|||
|
KKK KEY FEATURES:
|
Edward III of England
was a warrior who is remembered in history for his dramatic victory
against the French at Crecy (1346) and his sword, far from being a purely
ceremonial piece, was made to be wielded in battle. The Edward III Sword
(SH2033) has survived the centuries in remarkably good condition and we
have been able to replicate it in great detail. The style is typical of a
14th century battle sword but the fittings are undoubtedly those of a
king, from the heavy gilding to the adder-skin grip to the beautifully
enameled coat of arms, the latter illustrating Edward’s claim to French
territories by combining the Lion of England with the Fleur-de-Lys of
France. This well balanced sword may be wielded single-handed or
hand-and-a-half style and would (and perhaps did!) give an excellent
accounting of itself in the field of battle. Price $328.50

||
SH2034 -- Hand-and-a-Half Sword |
|||
|
Key Features:
|
Replicated from a
sword thought to be that of Albrecht II of Austria, the Hand-and-a-Half
Sword (SH2034) represents the pinnacle of beauty and balance in medieval
swords. Classically simple in design with a flattened diamond-section
blade and cruciform hilt, the original dates from the early part of the
15th century. The “Lion Rampant” emblem of the Habsburg dynasty is
engraved in the pommel, while the Passau “Running Wolf” guild mark and
a marigold maker’s mark appear on the blade fuller. Both the grip and
the scabbard are leather covered over a cord wrap.

SH2250 -- Bastard Sword |
|||
|
Measurements:
|
The strong and
fearless Swiss and Germans originally carried these early weapons,
although bastard swords soon became popular in other regions such as the
British Isles and Europe. The term bastard undoubtedly comes from the fact
that the sword, because of its design, has no legitimate claim to being
classified as either a single-handed or two-handed weapon. The two-handed
sword was a weapon developed for the use of the foot soldier and had
became quite common by the early 1500’s. The combat styles developed for
the two-handed sword were the particular specialty of the Northern
European Cultures, with the Germanic nations being quite active in its
development and use.

SH2002 -- Scottish Basket Hilt Broadsword |

Handle length: 6” Overall length: 39 3/4“ Weight: 3lb 1oz Thickness: .150 |
Although Basket-Hilt
swords appeared throughout Britian from the mid-sixteenth century on, their
association with the seventeenth and eighteenth century Scottish highlander
has become legendary. Early highland swords almost invariably carried the
double-edged “broadsword” blade but by the time of the Battle of Culloden
(1746) the single-edged “backsword” was at least equal in popularity. Both
the Basket-Hilt backsword and broadsword are replicated from period pieces
in the collection of the Royal Armouries in England. The Basket-Hilt Broadsword
(SH2002) carries a typical Glasgow-style hilt from the mid-18th century.
It is likely that the blade of the original sword was made in Germany a
century earlier and re-hilted as basket designs were refined. Both the SH2002
and SH2002N have wire-wrapped ray skin handles and cloth-covered leather
basket liner Price $329.00 Backordered

Replicated from an original in the
collection of the Royal Armouries in England, our Mortuary Hilt Sword
(SH2004) is a classic example of a cavalry or dragoon officer’s sword of
the 17th century English Civil War period. Deriving its name from the
style of sword which memorialized King Charles I, who was executed in
1649, The Mortuary Hilt Sword’s steel basket is decorated with scrolled
foliage while an engraved head of Charles I appears on the pommel. The
lozenge-section double-edged blade is partially fullered and bears the
swordmaker’s mark “1414”, the derivation of which has been lost in
time. The leather handle wrap terminates in silver wire “Turks Head”
knots. The sword, like the original, is beautifully balanced.

Wielded with untamed

SH1049 -- Cromwell Sword |

Handle length: 6 Overall length: 43 1/2 Weight: 3lb 4oz

Oliver Cromwell (1599 – 1658) was
a powerful figure in English history during and after the English Civil
War, when he rose from the rank of Captain of Horse to Lord Protector of
England. His sword, said to have been carried at the battle of Drogheda in
1649, has been remarkably well preserved and features in the collection of
the Royal Armouries in Leeds, England, where it is displayed in the
permanent collection. Our Cromwell Sword is an accurate replica of the
original “mortuary” hilt style and features a blackened guard
decorated in a gold foliage pattern with a wire-wound sharkskin grip. As
the original sword now lacks a scabbard , we have provided a design
typical of the period. This piece of English history is a must for the ECW
collector and re-enactor.

SH2203 -- Side Sword |
|||
Weight: 2lbs 8oz
|
The Side Sword (SH2203) was a
military sword of the 16th & 17th century Renaissance period that also
achieved popularity among civilians, due to its relatively light weight
& quickness. It also had an advantage over its contemporary, the
rapier, in having the ability to cut efficiently as well as thrust. Side
swords were often the weapon of choice for sword & buckler fighting.
Our Side Sword (SH2203), based on a German original, is a beautifully
proportioned piece that balances very well. The "swept-hilt"
affords excellent hand protection and the blade geometry makes for an
outstanding performance in both the cut and the thrust. The blade is
constructed of high-carbon steel and the wire-wrapped handle is
beautifully ornate.

Handle length: 6 1/2” Overall length: 36 1/2“ Weight: 2lb 7oz Box height: 28” Box width: 6” Thickness: .230
|
The Practical Single-Hand Sword is
based on the Marshall sword, so named for one of England’s finest
knights of the latter half of the 12th century. The sword is classically
styled, with a cruciform hilt, wheel pommel and a ridged-and-fullered
blade that is both stiff and surprisingly light. With a weight of less
than 2 ˝ lbs., the sword can be wielded forcefully without undue wear and
tear on the arm.
Our Practical broadswords (SH2106, SH2046,
SH2047) are all based on authentically styled swords in our collection but
they are tailored to meet the needs of re-enactment and stage combat.
These very popular and affordable weapons feature authentic hilt styling,
with fully tempered un-edged and un-pointed blades. They are designed to
withstand rugged use while providing the level of safety required by many
of today’s re-enactment societies. The blades are crafted from 1065
high-carbon steel, hardened to 50HRC, which restricts edge-notching to
acceptable levels while providing resilience and protection against
brittleness. While the blades are substantial, they are fullered to
provide balance and good handling characteristics. They feature 1/16”
wide edges and rounded tips for safety. The tangs are also substantial,
with radiused corners at the blade shoulders and no welds. The end of the
tang is riveted over the pommel, which both eliminates any possibility of
inadvertent disassembly and provides a traditional means of tightening a
loose hilt. The hardwood grips are leather-covered. The scabbards are
fabricated in glass-filled resin, to provide great impact resistance, to
eliminate swelling and to minimize blade corrosion problems. The scabbards
now feature belt rings that adjust to allow vertical or horizontal carry.
The wood-grain finish is attractive, but most re-enactors will decorate
the scabbard to match their persona. Price $129.00 Item Name: Practical Single Hand SwordItem Number: SH2046 Price: $129.00

The Practical Viking sword is based
on our Godfred sword, whose design originated in 9th century Scandinavia.
The lobate pommel and down-turned guard are typical of Viking swords of
the period, as is the broad blade with its deep, full-length fullers. The
sword is well-balanced and, with a weight slightly over 2 lbs, it is very
quick.
