Lowlander Sword - Antiqued

Wielded with untamed ferocity on many a Gaelic battlefield, the massive Lowlander sword vividly illustrates the might of the Scots of old. Known as "Slaughter-Swords" in the 16th century, these were the swords of choice for Scottish mercenaries of the period, and at close to six feet long the Lowlander faithfully replicates a surviving museum piece. This version of the sword by Paul Chen produced at Hanwei has an antiqued finish, closely replicating that of the original museum piece. Despite its great size, the Lowlander sword is beautifully proportioned and balanced. The typically Scottish quatrefoils in the ring guards attest to the heritage of this imposing piece. The grips of the Lowlander are leather-covered with an overlaid leather binding. A wall mount is provided to allow the transplanted Gael to display his sword with pride. See Hanwei model SH2065 for the bright-finished version of this sword.
