Light Early Longsword, late 13thC
Early Longsword, late 13th century, inspired by original examples from European museums.
Dark brown grip.
A very light sword in the Early Longsword style, with an extended handle for an additional 2-3 fingers of the other hand. This sword is agile and versatile, and can be also used with one hand. This is an early version of this type of sword, which began to be made in the second half of the 13th century and developed into the classic longsword in the 14th century. Crossguard round in cross-section, straight, flared ends. One of the recognizable and classic types.
Round pommel in the classic type.
The sword also features one of the characteristic blade geometry features of this period: a rounded tip, without a spiky point.
Very good and comfortable handling, good blade control, and maneuverability.

Note: This sword, like any handcrafted sword in the medieval style, can have traces of the manufacturing process, minor irregularities or asymmetries resulting from the specificity of real craftsmanship and medieval understanding of aesthetics, that are completely normal and do not affect the quality of the sword, but give it a unique original character, consistent with medieval objects of the same kind.
