Official 18th Century Highland Scottish Broadsword

Imagine holding in your hands an 18th-century relic that combines presence, history, and artisanal finish, designed to impress as much in a showcase as on period attire.

The blade, forged from high carbon steel C60, offers that metallic shine and classic profile appreciated by collectors and reenactors, while the folds and channels of the steel enhance the silhouette without detracting from its elegance. This blade design provides a sense of balance and authentic aesthetics, perfect for display.

The wooden core grip, wrapped in black leather and finished with wire winding, ensures a firm hold that visually resembles the original, adding warmth to the touch and a historical finish. The finely pierced and crafted steel cage guard envelops the hand with an ornamental character that also conveys solidity and visual protection.

The hemispherical pommel and full-piece construction keep the blade seated securely, conveying robustness and continuity in design, while the presence of two fullers in the sword creates a play of volumes that imparts movement and authenticity when viewed from any angle.

The perfectly fitted black leather scabbard is equipped with steel fittings at the mouth and tip, in addition to an upper metal loop that underscores its careful finish, facilitating an impeccable display on a wall, shelf, or pedestal.

Based on an original from the Eglinton Castle collection and linked to the painting 'A Pinch of Snuff' by William Delacour, this piece evokes the image of a late 18th-century Highland officer, connecting the sword with a specific moment in military history and art.

If your goal is to purchase the Eglinton 'Pinch of Snuff' Scottish Highland Officer's Broadsword to complete a collection, set the scene, or add character to your space, here you have a reproduction that excels in its faithful appearance, traditional feel, and historical presence.
