The Clip Point Falchion by Tod Cutler has a blade forged from EN45 high carbon steel which features a thick spine to give it good striking mass, rigidity and durability and the clipped point with a false edge gives the tip a thinned plane ideal both for cutting and thrusting with minimized resistance. The guard and pommel are steel and the wooden grip is tightly bound in leather. A robust peen over the pommel anchors the blade into the hilt and completes the sword for use. The falchion comes with a wood core scabbard that is bound in leather and completed with a knotted sword belt and finely cast copper alloy fittings. The swords by Tod Cutler have historical dimensions, proportions and handcrafted aesthetics foremost in mind. The swords show tool marks and minor cosmetic imperfections as part of their handcrafted nature and each has a unique character that is unlike the finish of common modern mass manufactured items. These tool marks and signs of hand finishing do not affect the usability, durability or build quality of the sword but instead form a part of its handcrafted character
