15th Century Arming Sword – 5.5mm Thick
This late 15th Century Arming sword would look right at home in both the gauntlet-clad hand of a knight or as a sidearm for professional man-at-arms or archer during the Hundred Years War. It takes its stylization from many of the Castillon hoard of swords that were found in a river in France – probably as cargo on a barge which foundered in the river. This large finding of swords were believed to have been crafted in England from a few workshops and were likely part of a military campaign resupply effort which was lost.

\nThis blade of this 15th Century Arming Sword is hand-forged from high carbon steel which has been tempered and solidly fitted into the hilt for a strong overall construction. The crossguard and pommel are steel and the carved grip is wood with a tight binding of stitched leather. The sword is matched with a companion wood-core scabbard which is finished with tight and protective stitched leather wrap.
