If you are looking for a 16th century Katzbalger sword that is fully functional and realistic, then look no further. This sword will meet all your expectations and will allow you to immerse yourself in the history of the Landsknechts like never before.
Starting in the 14th century, Swiss pikemen established themselves as dominant mercenaries. But an equally brave and robust competitor appeared later in Germany. German Landsknechts or Landsknechts challenged Swiss superiority in an 'all-out' rivalry that lasted for years. German troops were famous for their giant two-handed sword which they used to break the points of their enemies' pikes. The weapon that characterizes the lansquenetes is the short sword that was used for hand-to-hand combat: the Katzbalger. Carried by all lansquenets, including pikemen and arquebusiers, this sword had an ornate 'closed s' guard and an extra-long fluted pommel. The Katzbalger sword was certainly respectful of its Renaissance roots.
