Product description
This beautiful, well-balanced one-and-a-half-handed sword features a hardened spring steel blade which was tempered to a Rockwell hardness of approx. 48-50 HRC. It is full-tanged and riveted to the pommel. The distinctive broad fuller extends almost to the blade's point, which not only makes for high flexibility, but also reduces the medieval sword's weight.
The cross guard is forged out of steel and the leather-wrapped wooden grip is capped with a sturdy disc-shaped steel pommel (or wheel pommel). The gorgeous scabbard with wooden core is covered in leather and comes complete with a carrying belt wound around it. The blade's blunt, 2 mm thick edges and rounded tip make this bastard sword ideal for combat reenactment, stage fighting or sparring.

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.
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.
