Legacy of the Poor Fellow-Soldiers of the Temple of Solomon

The Knights Templar order was founded around 1119, twenty years after the Crusader conquest of Jerusalem. Nine knights took a vow of poverty, chastity, and obedience to protect pilgrims in the Holy Land. Their headquarters on the site of the former Temple of Solomon gave them their name, and they became half-monks, half-soldiers, whose bravery and wealth became legendary. This sword is a symbol of their faith, discipline, and fearlessness.

Care and Maintenance

Thanks to the stainless steel blade, maintenance is minimal. To preserve its original beauty, we recommend keeping the sword dry and occasionally polishing it with a soft, dry cloth.

Please note: This is a decorative replica and letter opener. The sword is not sharpened and is not intended for combat, fencing, or any other practical use as a weapon.
