The Henry V sword

The Henry V sword

The single-handed cut-and-thrust weapon combines a relatively short sturdy blade with elegant down-swept quillons and a wheel pommel. This Sword is crafted in much the same way as swords were made centuries ago, except that the blades are now forged from high-carbon spring steel, a resource unavailable off-the-shelf to the smiths of the old. The blade finish is far from being polished, again more closely replicating what the medieval swordsmith was able to achieve. The grip and the scabbard is from leather-covered hardwood This sword will appeal to the Reenactor who wants a sword with the same appearance as the originals. Designed by Paul Chen (Hanwei).
