Considered a heavy, single edged weapon designed for heavy chopping,the Italian falchion was a weapon used in battle more than most people realize. It has an ancient history that stretches back to the Bronze Age. During the Renaissance its form became a little more elaborate, but its functionality remained the same. This was a heavy battle ready sword designed to oppose the combinations of plate and mail that were popular. The blade could shear mail with ease, and dent or crush lighter weight plate. We have copied a sword in the Florence Museum dating from about the first quarter of the 16th century. The functional blade is high carbon steel. The guard and the pommel are steel, while the grip is polished hardwood. The scabbard mounts are also steel. A beautiful and impressive battle ready sword. Made by Windlass Steelcrafts®. Blade 26" long, 1 3/4 wide. 3 1/4 lbs.
