Cold Steel German Long Sword Black/Silver 46in

Cold Steel German Long Sword Black/Silver 46in. A modern interpretation taking its inspiration from historical examples it has an expertly heat treated and spring tempered 1060 steel blade that is exquisitely balanced beautifully polished and hand-honed to a keen edge. A large S-guard and protective side ring offer significant hand protection while being capable of performing the binding trapping and winding techniques that made the German Sword Masters' art so effective. A wrapped leather grip terminates in a heavy steel pommel that not only counter balances the long blade but serves as a potent weapon in its own right. The twisting spiral design on the pommel is more than just a good looking decorative feature; it also provides a comfortable and secure grip even in gloved or gauntleted hands. Finally the German Long Sword is encased in a thick ridged hand-stitched leather scabbard with an antiqued steel chape and brass buckled leather straps for wearing your sword on a belt or baldric.
