Product information "English backsword"
English backsword - An elegant one-handed sword of the 17th century
"What a brave weapon is a short sharp light sword, to carry, to draw, to be nimble withal, to strike, to cut, to thrust both strong and quick." - George Silver, Paradoxes of Defence, 1599
The English backsword is a classic one-handed sword from the 17th century, characterised by its manoeuvrability and effectiveness. Inspired by historical originals, it features an elegant basket handle and a sharp, slightly curved blade. This sword enables fast, precise strokes and sits comfortably in the hand - ideal for HEMA martial artists and lovers of historical weapons.
The blade is made of robust 1055 carbon steel and has been given an antique finish to emphasise its authentic character. Each sword comes sharpened and comes with an ornate leather and steel scabbard that is not only functional but also visually impressive.
Thanks to its solid workmanship and well-balanced design, this backsword is not only an excellent collector's item, but also ideal for historical fencing techniques and re-enactments. Its versatility makes it a valued companion for anyone interested in historical martial arts or the history of European swords.
