Bramham Moor dagger, semi-sharp

Product description

The dagger is named after the final battle of the Percy Rebellion of 1402–1408 and is a fine example of the elegant combat gear worn by wealthy warriors of the period. The Battle of Bramham Moor was the bloody culmination of the power struggle between Henry Percy, 1st Earl of Northumberland, and King Henry IV. On a cold 19th February, amidst the snow, Percy was defeated and killed, breaking his family's power. However, a branch of his descendants would later rise again during the Wars of the Roses.

This long dagger features an unpolished, dark-stained wooden grip and matte brass fittings.

The brown leather scabbard is fitted with a brass throat and chape that perfectly complement the dagger. The belt hook is crafted in the shape of a finely detailed, roaring lion's head, a fitting symbol for a nobleman.

Comes with a matching leather scabbard with brass fittings.
