Popular in most of Western Europe, excepting Germany, this falchion style of short single edged sword was typical of the 14thC and features a straight back with a long sweeping cutting edge and a long clip point allowing for both powerful cuts and wicked thrusts. The blade may be broad, but the use of fullers a radically thinning blade profile and both the clip point and sharpened false edges make this far manoeuvrable than it would at first seem from pictures alone. Well suited to professional fighting men who are not of the knightly class.
Sword comes complete with a period appropriate leather covered, wood cored scabbard and belt with copper alloy fittings. Sword is hand forged, hardened and tempered from EN45 steel and comes semi-sharp as standard.
100% cotton protective bags also available.
If your colour of choice is out of stock, why not try a different colour. It may then be able to be shipped straight away rather than waiting?
Edge sharpness
Semi-Sharp is 'butter knife sharp'; it has a very fine flat on the edge. Sharp has been ground to give a reasonable cutting edge, but final honing, if required, is by the customer.
