Product description

This beautiful spatha is a replica of an early Saxon sword found in 1961. The original, dated to the 4th-5th century, was found in the hypocaust (underfloor warm air heating system) of a Roman villa in Feltwell near Norfolk, England. Archaeologist believe the Feltwell Sword came to England with the first Anglian settlers.

This beautiful reconstruction of the Saxon one-handed sword has an approx. 61 cm long blade with a wide fuller and unsharpened cutting edges. The hilt is made of smooth horn and offers you a secure and comfortable grip. Pommel and crossguard are made riveted brass plates with a wooden disc in the middle. The sword comes with a brown wood/leather scabbard with a throat and chape. For easy transportation, the scabbard is equipped with a practical metal belt loop, which is suitable for belts with a width of approx. 5 cm.

This roman sword is designed as a collector's or decoration/display piece and, besides its quality as a collectible, is also perfectly suited as a prop, e.g. to complete your costume. Order now and buy yourself a piece of history!

This item is produced in limited quantities only. This means that every piece is unique. Sizes & finish may vary lightly from piece to piece.

Prevent rust and corrosion by oiling your weapons regularly. Remove rust easily with black sandpaper. Remove burrs with a whetstone. Make sure you have removed all burrs before using a battle-ready weapon, as they can cause wounds.

Maintenance & care
Just as with weaponry, you can care for your shoes and leatherware by applying a little Ballistol after cleaning. This prevents the leather from drying out.

Tip: How to adjust the finish of your armour and weaponry
Luxurious (polished)- polish the steel with metal polish or toothpaste. You can even give the item a mirror-like polish. Test on a small surface first!
Handmade (matte)- soak the steel in cola for 40 minutes to 20 hours. Check regularly and treat with black sandpaper.
Antique (patinated) leave the steel to rust for some time in a damp environment, preferably outside. Remove the red layer of rust, to reveal the corroded top layer.

Please note. After finishing the product yourself, the warranty and return right expire. Celtic WebMerchant is not responsible for the obtained result."
