Historical Significance
The Longsword holds a storied place in European history, cherished by knights and warriors from the 13th to the 17th centuries. Known during its heyday as the "bastard sword," it symbolized combat finesse, agility, and expertise. Its meticulously balanced design made it an indispensable tool for combat, versatile enough for use both on foot and horseback, during the tumultuous late medieval and Renaissance periods.
Craftsmanship and Materials
The soul of this longsword is its blade, precision-forged from 1095 steel, renowned for its significant carbon content and extraordinary hardness. Achieving a Rockwell Hardness rating of 56-58 HRC, the blade promises exceptional edge retention. A painstaking clay tempering process further augments the blade's durability, ensuring it remains razor-sharp, pliable, and resistant to breaking upon impact.
The craftsmanship extends to the handle, as impressive as the blade itself. Fashioned from select premium wood and embellished with intricately designed Damascus steel bolsters, it provides both a comfortable grip and an aesthetic allure that captivates all who behold it.
