Black leather scababrd with brass tip comes with the 14th C Longsword.
14th Century Hand-and-a-Half Sword by Royal Armouries and Windlass Steelcrafts.
Blade marking on the forged 1075 high carbon steel.
This big knightly sword features a broad and powerful Oakeshott Type XVIa blade of 38 inches.
This is quite a heavy sword by the standards of the day, due to the length and breadth of the blade, but is wonderfully balanced thanks to the distal taper, long grip and large pommel.
Peened pommel of the 14th century hand and a a half sword.
It found its way into the Arsenal of Alexandria either as a diplomatic gift, war booty or as a tribute object from the Kingdom of Cyprus to the Sultanate of Egypt, where it was inscribed with Arabic text.
Similar swords to this can be seen extensively in late-14th and early-15th century art, including manuscripts and also knightly effigies and brasses.
Royal Armouries Sword #IX.915
An imposingly large hand-and-a-half sword or longsword, probably of the late-14th century. The precise origin of this European sword is unknown, but from the markings it is likely to be German or possibly Italian.
