Arabian Scimitar – 44" Damascus Steel
The Arabian scimitar is one of the most iconic curved swords in history, favored across the Middle East for its speed, elegance, and devastating cutting power. Known for its sweeping blade and ornate hilt, the scimitar became a symbol of both artistry and strength. This modern recreation is hand-forged from Damascus steel, merging centuries of tradition with master craftsmanship at an impressive 44 inches overall length.
Damascus Steel Blade
The 34-inch curved blade is forged from alternating layers of 1095 high carbon steel and 15N20 nickel steel, folded repeatedly to create more than 300 layers. This layering process produces the flowing water-like patterns unique to Damascus steel, making each sword one of a kind.
The high carbon content delivers razor-sharp edge retention, while the nickel steel layers provide flexibility and shock absorption. The blade’s curve enhances its cutting ability, allowing it to deliver swift, powerful slashes. Balanced yet formidable, this scimitar captures both the beauty and lethality of its historic predecessors.
Handle & Fittings
The hilt is crafted with ornate detail, reflecting the artistry of traditional Arabian swords. A protective crossguard curves elegantly toward the blade, while the pommel adds weight for balance during strikes. The grip is wrapped for secure handling, ensuring control whether displayed as a collector’s piece or used in reenactment.
Historical Inspiration
Scimitars have deep roots in the Middle East, where they were carried by warriors, cavalry, and nobility from the 9th century onward. The blade’s curved profile made it ideal for mounted combat, enabling swift, sweeping strikes against heavily armored opponents. Over time, the scimitar became a symbol of prestige and power, its elegance matched only by its effectiveness.
This Damascus steel recreation is designed from historical examples, preserving the balance, curve, and striking profile that made the scimitar legendary.
