Decorative Witcher Sword of Princess Ciri

Decorative Witcher Sword of Princess Ciri with Red Back Scabbard

Fantasy Design Inspired by a Gaming Legend

The weapon is based on the design from one of the most successful computer RPGs of recent years. The sword features a sophisticated hilt with a ring pommel, which is typical for Irish medieval swords, and an unusual crossguard with quillons pointing towards the blade. The grip is wrapped in a light cord for a better hold, although on this model it serves primarily an aesthetic function. A striking element of the set is the wooden scabbard covered in deep red faux leather with a metal locket and chape. It is equipped with a synthetic leather strap and buckle for carrying on the back. From the perspective of historical fencing, wearing a sword on the back is a pure fantasy trope – quickly drawing such a long blade from over the shoulder is anatomically and physically almost impossible. However, in a magical world full of monsters, it is an essential and incredibly stylish element!

Safety Guidelines and Practical Use

The blade of this visually stunning replica is made of popular 420 stainless steel. In terms of metallurgy and material properties, it must be strongly emphasized that this is a decorative product unsuitable for practical use. While stainless steel of this type is highly resistant to corrosion and takes a beautiful polish, it lacks the flexibility and toughness of tempered high-carbon steel required for functional fencing weapons. Under no circumstances is this sword intended for contact fencing, cutting tests (tameshigiri), HEMA training, or man-to-man theatrical combat. Striking the blade against another weapon could cause it to shatter, leading to serious injury from metal splinters. The product is perfect as a luxurious costume accessory, a collector's wall prop, or for photoshoots.

Caring for Your New Witcher Sword

To ensure this piece brings you joy for as long as possible, it requires minimal maintenance. Thanks to the stainless steel, the blade does not rust easily. After handling the blade with bare hands (sweat is corrosive), simply wipe it with a dry microfibre cloth, and perhaps apply a very light coat of gun oil. Clean the red faux leather scabbard only with a slightly damp cloth, avoiding aggressive chemical cleaners that could ruin the colour or structure of the material.
