This medieval European longsword from Swordier is crafted with durability and performance at its core. Forged from tough 65Mn spring steel and fitted with a stainless-steel hilt secured by a solid peened construction it is built for real use rather than display alone. The wooden grip wrapped in stitched leather provides a firm and comfortable hold for both hands. Designed as a fully functional, battle-ready longsword, it offers an excellent option for cutters, reenactors, collectors, and anyone seeking a dependable modern interpretation of the classic medieval longsword that can slice tatami and cutting targets right out of the box. Though built for performance, the form remains classic in its knightly dimensions and eminently functional. The 36 inch blade has a diamond cross section to give it resilience and the essential stiffness needed for delivering strong thrusts into a target and is tempered to a flexing, but resilient 55 HRc hardness. Though it can pierce capably, the blade is even more optimized for powerful cuts and decisive slices. Weighing only slightly more than 3 lbs and with a point of balance about 2 inches above the guard the sword strikes a fine balance between maneuverability and heft. The approximately 10 inch grip gives plenty of space for two-handed handling allowing for strong leverage and controlled swings. The tight cord wrap keeps your hands steady when using this large and commanding longsword. Included with the sword is a hand-crafted scabbard with a wooden core covered in stitched faux leather and finished with stainless steel fittings and an integrated faux leather sword belt.
