Hungarian Longsword, late 14thC

Hungarian Longsword, late 14th century, inspired by original sword found in Michrów, Poland.
Dark brown grip, traditional inlays on the blade. 

Story behind the original sword
This magnificent sword was recovered by peasants from the Jeziorka River near the village of Michrów near Grójec (Warsaw County) in 1905. It was donated to the museum in 1906 and subsequently mentioned numerous times in scholarly publications. The original is generally attributed to Hungarian workshops, hence the name I adopted.

Characteristics
This sword is truly exceptional in terms of combat capabilities, and in terms of versatility, it perfectly suits its period in the second half of the 14th century.
The blade is quite narrow, has a double fuller, and tapers sharply towards the point. The blade is very stiff, also due to its initial thickness and even thinning. The blade has a distinctly hexagonal cross-section, which makes the edges more durable.
The enormous pommel, with its round, flattened shape, provides a massive counterweight and significantly brings the balance closer to the cross-guard. This makes the entire sword very agile; you don't feel its weight, and it can be wielded even one-handed, despite its weight of over 2 kg.
The original sword has no grip, so I decided to give it a simple, classic oval-shaped handle, typical of the period, with double risers in the center to separate the hands. It's best handled with one hand on the cross-guard and the other resting on the pommel. Thanks to this, we have a full range of techniques available, and we gain dynamic maneuvers. The handle fits the type of sword perfectly and is very comfortable.
I'm surprised at how well this sword 'works' in hands. It's a magnificent historical weapon with excellent combat characteristics.

Sharpness
The sword is sharp, the edges are sharpened, but it is not a razor sharpness. This is an effective combat sharpening, but you won't be able to, for example, 'cut paper' with it.

Markings / Inlays
The sword's blade features inlays on both sides, similar to the original sword. They were created using the traditional technique of inlaying with gold metal (a copper alloy, brass). The symbols are double arrows in a symbolic form, found on several other swords and attributed to Hungarian swordsmiths.
