Iberia swords are 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 old. The blade finish is far from being polished,
again more closely replicating what the medieval swordsmith
was able to achieve. The grips are carved in wood, often with
a leather or cord wrap to better replicate the originals on
which the designs were based. Fittings are either steel or solid
brass. Leather scabbards are included where shown. These swords
will appeal to the re-enactor who wants a sword with the same
appearance as the original.
The Henry V sword is modeled after the sword hung over the
tomb of one of England's great warrior kings. This single-handed
cut-and-thrust weapon combines a relatively short sturdy blade
with elegant downswept quillions and a wheel pommel. A sword
fit for a king! Leather handle.
