14th Cnetury Arming Sword by Windlass Steelcrafts and the Royal Armouries.
Includes a certificate of authenticity on heavy stock, a tin of Windlass Classic Wax, and a polishing cloth.
Gripping the sword from the pommel (like with a “viking” sword) works best.
The pommel of this sword looks conventional when viewed dead-on, but turn the sword sideways and an unusual, somewhat conical shape reveals itself .
The subtly shaped crossguard curves towards the blade, tapering and then swelling at the terminals, and the distinctive pommel has very particular angles and facets.
The hilt sits very comfortably in the hand. The broad leaf-like straight blade is of a flattened-diamond cross-section, double-edged, with a narrow fuller to reduce mass.
The sword was reputedly found in a peat bog together with another now in Rome and is unusually well preserved. Comparable swords have been found across much of Europe.
This type of sword could have been carried at the beginning of the Hundred Years War, and this particular example features several distinctive features.
