While Glasgow was known for compact, closed baskets, the Stirling style became famous for its richly pierced and elegantly crafted hilts, made by masters such as John Allan and Walter Allan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis replica follows that Stirling tradition with an exuberantly pierced basket hilt full of circular motifs and geometric decoration, which protects the hand well. The long, straight broadsword blade features multiple fullers and a tight, functional form. The dark grip and silvery fittings contrast with the bright blade. A black scabbard with decorative fittings completes the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis weapon is intended for collectors, as decoration and as a historical accessory for re-enactment and living history. The blade is not suitable for combat or sparring.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Deepeeka","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54134795600200,"sku":"116349900","price":277.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0891\/2892\/7560\/files\/0116349900_breitschwert_korbschwert_schottisch_stirling_stil_mittelalter_schwert.jpg?v=1790318311","url":"https:\/\/www.celticwebmerchant.co.uk\/products\/deepeeka-schots-basket-hilted-broadsword-stirling-stijl-18e-eeuw-semi-scherp","provider":"Celtic WebMerchant","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
