Product description
The side sword was a military sword from the Renaissance (16th and 17th centuries) that became popular among civilians due to its low weight and speed. Unlike the rapier from the same period, it was both an effective cutting and thrusting weapon.
This sword is modeled after a German original and features a 5160 steel blade with thick, well-rounded cutting edges and a blunted point. The curved hilt provides good hand protection. For extra safety, we recommend a rubber cap or a piece of leather on the point.
With the blunt edge and rounded point, this sword is made for show combat, combat reconstruction, and training. Inspect the blade before each use for burrs and remove them promptly.
