BLUNT COMBAT ARMING SWORD AH6951F/ST DEEPEEKA
This simple, one-handed sword with its tapered blade is most akin to the "Arming" swords of medieval Europe (sometimes called knightly sword) which was a straight, double-edged weapon with a single-handed cruciform hilt and a blade length of about 28-31 inches. "Arming sword" in late medieval usage specifically refers to the estoc when worn as a side-arm designed for fighting against mail or plate armour.
This cruciform-hilted Arming sword is made by Deepeeka and is equipped with a thick, blunt blade and blunt rounded tip designed for stage combat. The blade is crafted from fully tempered EN45 high carbon steel, and the forward swept guard and round wheel pommel are of steel. The blade features a long fuller runing down its center providing quickness, balance and strength. The dual-edge blade is full tang and runs through the pommel where it is then securely peened. The grip is wrapped in a handsome brown, leather cord. This classic style Arming Sword comes with a wood-core scabbard covered in dark brown leather affixed with a wooden suspension loop.
Note: This Fine Quality Deepeeka Sword has a blunt edge, solid construction materials, and handling qualities well suited for rugged Stage Combat yet is beautiful enough for home display!
