Blade:  27" 1075 high carbon steel

Handle:  7" steel, maple, goat leather, cord

This is an arming sword, typical to the equipment of an armored knight in later medieval Europe. I built this sword in the first ever Sword Reflections class under the guidance of master swordsmith Peter Johnsson, who had come over from Sweden for the occasion. Peter has exhaustively studied hundreds of medieval swords in museums around the world, and this blade is historically accurate to extant swords of its type.

This sword comes with a felt lined wood-core scabbard bound in fine leather matching the hue of the grip, with full mountings to be worn. On a personal note, this is the first sword I have ever worn, and I was shocked at how comfortable it was. You could wear this thing all day long and basically not notice it unless you were navigating lots of tight spaces.
