Experience the powerful elegance of medieval weaponry with our 38" Longsword, also known as a Bastard Sword. This European-style weapon, widely used during the late medieval and Renaissance periods, features a straight double-edged blade and a cruciform hilt designed for two-handed use.
Crafted from pattern welded Damascus steel, the blade is a result of meticulous heat treatment and folding of 11 pieces of steel five times, resulting in 352 robust layers. The high carbon Damascus steel, containing layers of the top-quality 1095 carbon steel, offers an ideal balance of hardness and durability, with a Rockwell hardness rating of 55-56 HRC.
This composition allows the sword to hold a formidable edge and endure substantial impacts, making it the ultimate steel choice for swords. The handle, made from sturdy wood complemented with Damascus steel bolsters, assures a firm grip during use.
The sword comes encased in a durable leather sheath, further enhancing its longevity. It’s important to note that this sword is a beautiful artwork ideal for collection or display and is not intended for use as a weapon.
