Product description

The two-handed sword has been employed since the fourteenth century in medieval Europe. It was a weapon of war for fully armoured soldiers between 1350 and 1550. From the sixteenth century onwards the weapon remained in use for sporting fights and chivalrous duels. It was possible to utilise this sword with two hands for extra power behind a thrust.

The sword is a replica of original Oakeshott type XVIIIe swords. This type of sword was used from around the mid-fifteenth century to the beginning of the sixteenth century. Typical of this sword is that the blade starts narrow at the guard and then widens again before extending very narrowly to the tip. The grip is well-suited to one and a half hands and two hands.

The sword is crafted from carbon steel with a hardness of 50–55 HRC. It is fitted with a wooden grip with steel fittings, and is furnished with a sharp blade and tip.
