Product description

The original Shrewsbury sword, an Oakeshott type XV, is nowadays part of the Wallace Collection. Our sword is not an exact replica of the aforementioned historical original, but is instead based on different parts of original late fourteenth century - early fifteenth century swords used in the Battle of Shrewsbury.


The Battle of Shrewsbury took place on July 21, 1403, with King Henry IV of England triumphing over Sir Henry Percy of Northumberland. This Percy rebelled against his king along with the leader of the Welsh Revolt in 1400-1415.


This one-and-a-half sword, or bastard sword, is made of tempered EN45 spring steel. The pommel is riveted and the grip consists of a wooden core wrapped with brown leather. It has a cross-guard with cross-shaped motifs and an octagonal scent-stopper pommel. The cross-guard is approximately 23 cm long and 0.5 cm thick. The sword is delivered including a wooden scabbard covered with brown leather. The scabbard has steel scabbard tips.

Prevent rust and corrosion by oiling your weapons regularly. Remove rust easily with black sandpaper. Remove burrs with a whetstone. Make sure you have removed all burrs before using a battle-ready weapon, as they can cause wounds.

Maintenance & care
Just as with weaponry, you can care for your shoes and leatherware by applying a little Ballistol after cleaning. This prevents the leather from drying out.

Warranty
This item is perfect for beginning sword fighters and light battles but this sword is not covered by a warranty.

Tip: How to adjust the finish of your armour and weaponry
Luxurious (polished)- polish the steel with metal polish or toothpaste. You can even give the item a mirror-like polish. Test on a small surface first!
Handmade (matte)- soak the steel in cola for 40 minutes to 20 hours. Check regularly and treat with black sandpaper.
Antique (patinated) leave the steel to rust for some time in a damp environment, preferably outside. Remove the red layer of rust, to reveal the corroded top layer.

Please note. After finishing the product yourself, the warranty and return right expire. Celtic WebMerchant is not responsible for the obtained result."
