Knights Templar War Sword

Sword class D, NO WARRANTY!

A Masterpiece in Detail:

• Impressive Dimensions: The sword boasts a total length of an impressive 942 millimetres (94.2 cm), giving it a majestic appearance.
• High-Quality Blade: The blade itself measures 75.8 centimetres. It's crafted from durable, high-carbon spring steel, which has been oil-hardened and tempered to ensure strength. Its surface is polished to a silvery sheen and features the characteristic fuller (groove) on both sides, lightening the blade and enhancing its authenticity. The edge thickness is approximately 2 millimetres; ten centimetres from the tip, the blade is about 30.2 mm wide and 4.15 mm thick.
• Precise Hilt: The handle offers a grip length of 123 millimetres (12.3 cm). Its core consists of a sturdy wooden structure reinforced with steel, meticulously wrapped in high-quality black leather for a secure and comfortable hold. The elegant brass crossguard spans 170 millimetres (17 cm).
• Symbolic Detail: Both the crossguard and the solid, octagonal brass pommel (with a diameter of approx. 56-59 mm and a thickness of approx. 27 mm) bear the embossed motif of the Templar cross. To make it stand out, this symbol is filled with red acrylate, lending the sword a unique character.
• Balance and Weight: Designed with historical accuracy in mind, the sword's point of balance is located approximately 17.5 cm from the crossguard. The sword alone weighs around 1223 grams, giving it a feeling of solidity and realism.
• Authentic Scabbard: The sword comes with a robust scabbard weighing approximately 376 grams. It features a wooden core covered in thick, black cowhide leather. Its chape (metal fitting at the throat) and locket (metal fitting at the tip) are finished in a contrasting dark brown colour. The scabbard reliably protects the blade and completes the overall look.
• For Right and Left-Handers: Thanks to its symmetrical design, the sword is suitable for wearing on a belt on either the left or right side.
