14th Century Seneschal Medieval Sword with Sheath

Imagine holding in your hands a symbol of medieval authority, capable of conveying presence and purpose with just its silhouette and finish.

The faithful reproduction of the 14th Century Seneschal Medieval Sword with sheath captures that same aura, combining historical design and practical functionality. Inspired by the piece preserved in the Musée de l'Armée in Paris, it evokes the transitional moment when warfare changed tactics, and weapons had to be versatile for fighting with a shield or buckler.

Its robust, wide-profile blade allows for a balance between cutting and thrusting, translating to a feeling of control and security with every maneuver. The central groove reduces vibration, allowing for more stable handling, while the rigidity of the blade offers precision when aiming and confidence in stopping or deflecting the rival's blade. The straight guard provides support, along with a grip that favors control during extended use.

The faceted brass pommel, in addition to its notable presence, integrates a peened block that extends the tang, facilitating disassembly and future interventions, contributing longevity and adaptability to the piece. The combination of grip and sheath in red with brass details suggests rank and distinction, offering a coherent and elegant finish that protects the sword and stands out in any display.

A brief historical context, the Seneschal was the figure representing authority and military management in medieval nobility, reinforcing the symbolism of this replica. The pommel recalls findings from the Mary Rose, connecting this design with actual recovered examples from the past.

Key benefits:

• Historical and aesthetic presence that enhances a collection or exhibition.
• Design aimed at balanced handling, between cutting and thrusting.
• Maintenance and customization facilitated by its construction.
