Dive deep into the annals of European history with the pristine king sword, more commonly known as the longsword. Its signature cruciform hilt coupled with a double-handed grip speaks of its dominance on the battlefield and prominence in the hands of the elite warriors of old. As the embodiment of the late medieval and Renaissance weapon-craft (spanning approximately from 1350 to 1550), the longsword is as much a tool of war as it is a symbol of chivalry and martial honor.
The term "bastard sword" is a nod to the versatility and adaptability of this type of sword. Measuring an imposing 40 inches, this particular specimen is every bit the embodiment of martial perfection that a longsword was meant to be.
This sword is a labor of love and craftsmanship. Its intricate details, from the meticulously crafted hilt to its razor-sharp edge, reveal the dedication and skill of its maker. And for those times it's not in use, the handcrafted leather sheath ensures its preservation and safekeeping.
This sword is made from 1095 steel which accurately matches the very hard steel content of ancient rapier swords. Currently, 1095 steel is the highest carbon steel commonly used in swords. It has a carbon level of .95% which is one of the highest carbon levels for any type of steel. The most common high carbon swords are 1045 steel which only have .45% carbon content in the steel. 1095 steel is known for its ability to maintain an edge and is an incredibly hard steel. 1095 steel typically has a hardness of 56-58 HRC. While lacking flexibility, the steel excels at remaining sharp even through high impact collisions and can easily be resharpened.
Handle: Fashioned from steel, complemented with brass bolsters, it provides the wielder a firm grip and a sense of sturdiness.
Overall Length: 40 inches
Rockwell Hardness: 56-58 HRC

Blade Composition: 1095 steel
