Transport your mind to medieval times with our Italian long blade sword! This lethal weapon is the faithful representation of the swords that dominated the battlefield for almost three centuries, from 1350 to 1650. Why was it so successful? Because it really worked! With its long double-edged blade and distinctive cruciform hilt, this sword was equally adept at facing lightly and heavily armored enemies.
Its extra-long blade offers the reach and leverage needed for powerful lunging and cutting strikes, while its wide guard and heavy pommel are useful for hooking and striking. When heavy plate armor was encountered, blade strikes were marginally effective and were often abandoned in favor of a half-sword technique, in which one hand grips the fist and the other the blade to better direct the point and make thrusts into the small openings and joints of the armor with greater precision.
Don't miss the opportunity to own such a legendary weapon! Whether as a collector's item or for practicing historical martial arts, our Italian long-bladed sword guarantees you a knockout blow in any fight!
The Cold Steel® reconstruction is based on the Italian sword design. The blade and balance slightly favor lunge attacks, however the cutting edges are also surprisingly effective. Additionally, the simple cruciform grip is fully functional, with its wide downward-sloping guard, leather-over-wood grip, and fishtail counterweight. This Italian long blade sword comes with a leather covered wooden sheath with steel trim.
