Erbach Sword, circa 1480, Signature Series
Introducing the Signature Series by Windlass! Some of their all-time favourites, reissued by Windlass Steelcrafts® with several upgrades! The blade has improved distal taper, making the sword livelier and quicker. The scabbard now has a wooden core underneath the leather exterior. The grip features leather that is dimpled using a historically authentic "wet-wrap" process, during which fine cord is tightly wrapped around a wet leather grip. When it's dry, the cord is removed and the leather is left attractively indented and provides improved texture and grip. More information...

Erbach Sword, circa 1480, Signature Series
