Product description

This beautiful knight's sword formed part of the collection of Comte de Nieuwerkerke, a French sculptor and art collector. The original provenance of the sword, which is now held in the Wallace Collection in London, remains unknown. It is likely, however, that it was found in France, given the pronounced signs of corrosion indicating a river find. According to the Oakeshott typology it is classified as Type XV and dates from approximately 1350–1400. This dating suggests that the sword was employed during the Hundred Years' War between France and England. This replica has a semi-sharp blade that tapers sharply towards the tip. The hilt consists of a crossguard curved towards the blade, a wooden grip wrapped in brown leather, and a pommel with a round recess in the middle. The sword comes with a brown wooden/leather scabbard.
