The Greeks might be best known for their achievements in politics, mathematics, sculpture, literature and philosophy, but make no mistake, they were brilliant and fearsome warriors as well. Marathon, Thermotylae and Salamis stand as near-legendary examples of strategic and tactical brilliance, not to mention just plain rock-hard fighting. By the time their military achievements ended with the conquests of Alexander, they'd put a dent or two in the known world. The Greek sword was a dual-purpose weapon with a leaf-shaped blade designed for both cutting and thrusting. The grip in our version is wood, just as in the original. Scabbard included. This functional sword is made from high carbon steel by the craftsmen at Windlass Steelcrafts.
