Description
This set brings you a faithful replica of the medieval arming sword, crafted from steamed beechwood,known for its strength and slight flexibility, making it well-suited for training and drills. The blade measures just under 27 inches, balanced by a triangular pommel that not only helps steady the hand but also reflects the design common in the 13th and 14th centuries. The guard and pommel carry a walnut stain, giving the wood a rich tone reminiscent of darkened ironwork, while the handle is wrapped in leather strips to provide a firm grip when sparring or practicing forms. The total length comes to just over 34 inches, closely matching many historical examples of the knightly arming sword. Alongside the sword, there’s a compact nylon case originally styled for a katana bokken, adapted here with an adjustable strap to carry small training tools or accessories. Whether you’re practicing martial techniques, performing on stage, or participating in historical reenactment, this set offers a tangible connection to the weapons once wielded on medieval battlefields.
