English or French single-edged sword, XV century

Are you looking for a replica of a historical sword with authentic details that take you back to the 15th century? Do not look any further! We present you the 15th century English or French Single-edged Sword , a wonderful piece that combines beauty and functionality.

This sword is a true jewel, made with a superior blade to the original. Handcrafted by a skilled swordsmith, the blade is precision forged using fully tempered 1080 high carbon steel. In addition, it has a distal narrowing that allows adequate weight distribution, ensuring optimal handling.

The scabbard of this sword is designed to replicate those used at that time. It is made with a wooden body and covered in leather, providing an authentic and durable look. In addition, the tip is reinforced with a brass ferrule, guaranteeing greater resistance.

A unique feature of this sword is its single-edged blade, an unusual choice for the time. On closer inspection, one can appreciate its wedge-shaped cross section and its false edge on the back of the blade near the point. It is remarkably wide and thin, with a sharp edge geometry that leads to a fine cutting edge. This sword shares physical similarities with other single-edged swords, such as falchions.

The design of the sword includes cross-shaped guard hawks, ending in coiled points that allow the enemy blade to be retained. The asymmetrical grip located towards the trailing edge and the scent stopper type pommel provide a comfortable grip and a perfect hold. This sword was used by various combatants, from well-equipped archers to men-at-arms and knights, even as a civilian weapon for protection.

The sword feels nimble in the hands, and despite its width, it is surprisingly light due to the thinness of the blade and its distal taper. Although it can be effectively pushed against unarmored enemies, it is optimized for slashing, with a wider point and more flexible blade than typical swords of the time.
