Museum Replicas Scimitar (500822) |
Points: 17
|
Circa 1700
The original scimitar was called a shamshir, (which meant "lion's tail") and had a deeply curved blade that was almost a half circle. Developed in Persia, this type of blade was effective for draw cuts, but other than that, of limited utility. This caused the blade to shift its shape into a more useful version, which we have chosen to copy. Blade is quite effective, being able to draw cut as well as slash, and the point is quite useful in the "hooking" thrust often used. Made from high carbon steel by Windlass Steelcrafts. Grip is wood, and the guard and scabbard furniture are steel. Complete with scabbard. A beautiful and romantic sword. Copied from the Hank Reinhardt collection. Can be sharpened for additional fee.

Italian War Sword (501233) |
Points: 14
|
While the rapier as carried by the civilian population, many military men held it in great distain, considering it effiminate. Some took this to the degree where they had older, medieval cutting style blades mounted on more modern hilts. This sword is certainly a prime example of this practice with its wide cutting blade mounted on a slightly "S" curved quillion cross guard with simple finger ring protection. Features a rough out, leather over wood grip and wheel pommel with floral decoration. Very much a heavy cutting sword, scabbard included. Made by Windlass Steelcrafts®. Sold Out

Brass Basket Hilt Claymore |
Points: 23

This Scottish basket-hilt Claymore is the equal to any raised by clansmen as they overran the English at the Battle of Falkirk on Jan. 17th, 1746. The pierced basket-hilt is a faithful reproduction of one found on the Culloden Moor. The fully tempered high carbon steel blade is of the typical fullered, double-edge, broadsword pattern of the 1500's - 1800's. The basket also has a rich red cloth liner and a scabbard is included. Made by Windlass Steelcrafts. Sold Out

Chioggia Sword |
Points: 18

Circa 1379
We have named this impressive Italian sword for the Battle of Chioggia, where the Venetians totally crushed the Genovese forces and ended Genoa as a great sea power. This is a very well-balanced and fast sword with its deeply fluted pommel and beveled guard, both from steel. The grip is wood covered in leather with decorative studs. The well-tempered high carbon steel blade is nicely fullered and the perfect length for a one-hand sword. Comes complete with nicely decorated scabbard. Made by Windlass Steelcrafts

Light Cavalry Saber 1860 (SDK-1132) |
Points: 15
|
The light cavalry saber is features a long, gently curved blade that would have been just as effective on horseback as it would have on foot, serving in equal
capacity as a slicing and a stabbing weapon.
Sabre features a stainless steel blade, and a wire-wrapped handle that provides a secure grip.
Also features a classic saber's guard, which keeps the hand safe while the saber is held. Comes with a steel scabbard set with two rings,
which means that this sword can actually be worn at your side with the proper suspension system. Sold Out

Hanwei Nami Iaito |

Iaito have long been the preferred training tools for safe practice of the many Japanese sword drawing arts typically known as Iaido. While not designed for sword-on-sword contact or actual test cutting, the un-edged iaito is perfectly weighted and balanced for its designed task of safe, repetitive drawing practice.

Through a special tempering process, these Iaito blades eliminate the brittle behaviour sometimes associated with stainless steel, while retaining its low maintenance and rust-resistant qualities. These very affordable Iaito are the ideal training tools for safely praciticing this ancient art.

While not designed for sword-on-sword contact or actual test cutting, the un-edged iaito is perfectly weighted and balanced for its designed task of safe, repetitive drawing practice.
The Meijin Iaito (SH5018) is an amazing testament of the quality produced by CAS/Hanwei.

The blade is differentially tempered using a traditional claying method and has a beautiful grain pattern (hada) with visible layers. The tsuka is wrapped in genuine ray skin (same) and the tsuka-ito is premium black Japanese cotton. The black iron square tsuba, fuchi, & kashira are done in a "Turbulent Ocean" motif. The habaki is a one-piece brass construction. The saya is done in a beautiful black matte striped finish going the whole length of the scabbard and the sageo is black cotton. The Meijin Iaito represents the pinnacle of production quality for Iaito swords.
