This immaculately embellished and fully functional Ancient Egyptian Khopesh sword is adorned with the symbology of the serpent; the blade is forged from tempered C60 high carbon steel with a dark blued finish and a central snake ridge of copper. On both the base of the blade and hilt pommel, finely-cast and highly detailed snake fittings of antiqued brass give the sword an interest and dignity befitting the great Pharoah. The grip is made from darkened carved wood and the blade is stoutly mounted into the hilt with triple-riveted copper rivets. The sword is matched with a tough sheath of genuine leather with well-stitched construction and an integrated shoulder baldric for wear. Please be aware that the buttoned retaining straps are unable to function fully as the fittings on the base of the blade prevent full closure. Please Note: If you opt to have the blade sharpened the blade edge will be plain steel which will not be as a dark as the rest of the blade.
