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 War Sword is a hand-and-a-hand design from the early 14th
century. The hardwood grip and elongated scent-stopper pommel
make the 32" blade surprisingly easy to handle. Ebony
handle.
