It measures 32 inches overall, with the blade heat treated to 56 to 58 HRC for exceptional edge retention. Compact enough to display anywhere yet built as a fully functional sword, it pairs the classic curved profile of the Middle Eastern saber with one of history's most enduring symbols of power: the eagle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\" data-sourcepos=\"12:1-12:39;881-919\"\u003eHistory: The Scimitar and the Eagle\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"14:1-14:488;921-1408\"\u003eThe curved saber reached the Middle East around the 9th century with Turkic horsemen from the Central Asian steppe, and over the centuries it branched into a family of legendary regional swords: the Arab saif, the Ottoman kilij, and the deeply curved Persian shamshir, which rose to prominence in the 12th century and became the definitive Persian sword by the 16th. European writers gathered them all under one borrowed word, scimitar, most likely an adaptation of the Persian shamshir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"16:1-16:646;1410-2055\"\u003eThe eagle pommel on this sword draws on an equally old tradition. Across the Islamic world, sword hilts were often sculpted into animal forms, with bird head pommels among the most prized, appearing on Persian and Ottoman sabers as marks of rank and artistry. And no bird carried more weight in the region's symbolism than the eagle. The golden Eagle of Saladin, associated with the great 12th century sultan who faced the Crusaders, endures to this day on the coats of arms of Egypt and other Arab states as an emblem of strength, vision, and sovereignty. An eagle crowned scimitar unites the region's signature sword with its signature symbol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\" data-sourcepos=\"18:1-18:43;2057-2099\"\u003eBlade Materials: High Carbon 1095 Steel\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"20:1-20:234;2101-2334\"\u003eThe blade is forged from 1095 steel, the highest carbon steel commonly used in swords. Its 0.95% carbon content is more than double that of the widely used 1045 steel (0.45%), giving the blade outstanding hardness and edge retention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"22:1-22:267;2336-2602\"\u003eEach blade is precision heat treated to 56 to 58 HRC. That hardness lets the edge stay keen through hard use and resharpen cleanly, while the heat treatment is carefully controlled so the blade retains the strength to stand up to high impact contact without failing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\" data-sourcepos=\"24:1-24:23;2604-2626\"\u003eFeatures and Design\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\" data-sourcepos=\"26:1-30:89;2628-3132\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\" data-sourcepos=\"26:1-26:104;2628-2731\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1095 High Carbon Steel Blade:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand forged and heat treated to 56 to 58 HRC for lasting sharpness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\" data-sourcepos=\"27:1-27:128;2732-2859\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEagle Head Pommel:\u003c\/strong\u003e An intricately detailed sculpted pommel in the tradition of Persian and Ottoman bird head sword hilts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\" data-sourcepos=\"28:1-28:97;2860-2956\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWood Handle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Finely crafted for a firm, comfortable grip and a warm contrast to the steel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\" data-sourcepos=\"29:1-29:87;2957-3043\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHand Stitched Leather Sheath:\u003c\/strong\u003e Protects the blade and completes the presentation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\" data-sourcepos=\"30:1-30:89;3044-3132\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBattle-Ready Construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e A fully functional sword, not a decorative wall hanger.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\" data-sourcepos=\"32:1-32:17;3134-3150\"\u003eSword Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\" data-sourcepos=\"34:1-39:32;3152-3325\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\" data-sourcepos=\"34:1-34:22;3152-3173\"\u003eOverall Length: 32\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\" data-sourcepos=\"35:1-35:41;3174-3214\"\u003eBlade Material: High Carbon 1095 Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\" data-sourcepos=\"36:1-36:34;3215-3248\"\u003eRockwell Hardness: 56 to 58 HRC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\" data-sourcepos=\"37:1-37:30;3249-3278\"\u003ePommel: Detailed eagle head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\" data-sourcepos=\"38:1-38:15;3279-3293\"\u003eHandle: Wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\" data-sourcepos=\"39:1-39:32;3294-3325\"\u003eSheath: Hand stitched leather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\" data-sourcepos=\"41:1-41:30;3327-3356\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"43:1-44:226;3358-3614\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is an eagle scimitar?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a curved Middle Eastern style saber finished with a sculpted eagle head pommel, a design rooted in the bird head hilts of Persian and Ottoman sword making and the eagle's long history as a symbol of power in the region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"46:1-47:97;3616-3751\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat steel is the blade made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e The blade is forged from 1095 high carbon steel (0.95% carbon) and heat treated to 56 to 58 HRC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"49:1-50:107;3753-3887\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long is this sword?\u003c\/strong\u003e The sword measures 32 inches overall, more compact than a full length scimitar and well suited to display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"52:1-53:94;3889-4014\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this sword battle-ready?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes.
