Italian longsword with scabbard - Sharp blade for precise blows The longsword was one of the most important weapons in medieval Europe for several centuries. From around 1350 to 1650, it proved its worth both on the battlefield and in the art of fencing. Its long, double-edged blade not only offered an impressive reach, but also the necessary leverage for powerful blows and precise thrusts. The characteristic cross shape of the hilt with its long crossguard and heavy pommel not only served to protect the hand, but could also be used strategically to disarm opponents or throw them off balance. A special technique was used against heavily armoured opponents in particular: the half-sword. This involved gripping the blade with one hand in order to guide the tip through weak points in the armour. This versatility made the longsword an indispensable weapon in the martial arts of its time. This Italian longsword is modelled on historical examples and impresses with its elegant and functional design. The sharp blade is primarily optimised for thrusts, but the cutting edges are also extremely effective. The handle is made of wood and wrapped in leather, while the crossguard is slightly curved downwards to provide additional protection. The fishtail pommel ensures optimum balance and enables precise manoeuvres. The sword is supplied with a high-quality, leather-covered wooden scabbard reinforced with steel fittings. Features: Blade material: 1060 carbon steel Total length: approx. 119.4 cm Handle length: approx. 29.2 cm Blade length: approx. 90.2 cm Weight: approx. 1273 g Includes leather-covered wooden sheath with steel fittings Note: This item is only for sale to persons of legal age. Proof of age is required. Safety instructions: This sword has a sharp blade. Improper or careless handling can lead to injuries.

Historical Viking sword of the 9th and 10th centuries The Viking sword of the 9th and 10th centuries was characterised by a long, broad blade with a central fuller and two edges. As it was primarily designed for hacking and slashing in the fighting techniques of the time, the blade had a rather rounded tip that was nevertheless suitable for stabbing. A simple, forward-curved crossguard was often combined with a handy handle made of leather-covered wood. In some cases, materials such as bone or brass were also used. A solid pommel with five ridges was used to balance the long blade. This replica has a hand-forged, double-edged blade made of carbon steel, which has been polished by hand and sharpened to perfection. The handle is made of wood with leather wrapping and is framed by a simple but elegant crossguard and a pommel with five ridges. Both are decorated with traditional knot patterns.

Italian longsword - Man at Arms with leather sheath The Italian longsword from the Man at Arms (MAA) series by Cold Steel® is an impressive reconstruction of a classic medieval sword that is equally suitable for combat and historical collection. It carries on the tradition of the valiant "Man-at-Arms" - warriors who proved themselves in countless battles, but without the status of knights. These soldiers were known for their unwavering loyalty and courage, and Cold Steel® honours these warriors with this sword collection that is both high quality and affordable. Compared to Cold Steel®'s premium versions, the MAA longsword features a blued blade and black handles for a functional yet aesthetically pleasing look. Although the MAA blades have no silver-polished steel parts, they fulfil the highest standards of performance and quality. These blades are fully sharpened and battle-ready, with a robust yet elegant design that reflects the sharpness and functionality of a true longsword. The longsword from the MAA series has a long tradition and was the favoured sword in medieval Europe for almost 300 years (approx. 1350 to 1650). The double-edged blade is ideal for use against both light and heavy armour. Particularly noteworthy is the reach of the blade, which enables powerful thrusts and cuts, while the long crossguard and heavy pommel act as striking weapons and can throw the opponent off balance. The half-sword technique, in which the swordsman grasps the blade with one hand, makes it possible to stab precisely into gaps in the armour. The MAA Italian longsword was modelled on classic Italian designs, with the emphasis on thrusting attacks. Nevertheless, the cutting edges are surprisingly effective and make the sword a versatile weapon for swordplay. The simple yet functional crossguard and the balanced fishtail pommel round off the design perfectly. Included is a high-quality leather sheath with blued steel fittings, which keeps the sword safe and stylish at the same time. Details: Blade material: 1090 carbon steel, blued Total length: approx. 119.4 cm Handle length: approx. 29.2 cm Blade length: approx. 90.2 cm Blade thickness: approx. 6.35 mm Weight: approx. 1389 g Incl. leather sheath with blued steel fittings Cold Steel® item number: 88ITSM This sword is ideal for historical fencing techniques and as a collector's sword.

Hunting sword The hunting sword, also known as the "hanger", was an extremely popular weapon in Europe and North and South America in the 16th and 17th centuries. With a mostly short blade that was rarely longer than 65 cm, this sword was characterised by its handiness and effectiveness. It was the ideal companion, whether on foot, on horseback or on a narrow ship deck. In addition to its popularity in the fashion of the time, the hunting sword was indispensable in many situations due to its practical use.

The sheath made of robust black leather perfectly matches the elegant design of the sword, while the nickel silver fittings with decorative embossing provide additional accents. 1055 carbon steel This steel is characterised by its stable, robust character, as it is less brittle than steels with a higher carbon content. It is ideal for making blades that require high impact resistance and is often used in machetes, large knives and swords.
