Bastard battle sword with scabbard - functional blunt
A bastard sword, also called just a long sword, is a late medieval and Renaissance sword with a long, straight, double-edged blade that was usually wielded with one and a half or two hands.
This blunt reconstruction of a late medieval sword is hand-forged. The straight, twisted guard and pommel are made of heat-treated tempered cast iron. The spring steel blade is oil-hardened to 48-50° Rockwell, forged to the hilt and screwed to the pommel. The wooden scabbard is covered with leather. The blade has a characteristic groove that extends almost to the middle of the blade, which offers both flexibility and reduced weight. The edges of this single-edged medieval sword are blunt, and the tip is rounded for safety.
The sword comes with a leather-covered wooden scabbard with metal fittings.
