Exquisite metal working was forged to life in this Knights Templar functional long sword. A thick central ridge is accentuated by a smooth, functional point. The fuller covers ¾ of the actual blade on both sides. Although the blade has a standard safety edge, it can be professionally sharpened to it's authentically inherited sharp edge. The steel guard protects an area of about 8 inches. The weighted octagonal pommel features the Knights Templar crusaders cross. Sheath this beauty in a fully wrapped hardwood scabbard. It is traditionally wrapped from top to bottom, and even inside where the blade inserts. The ends are fitted with steel for absolute protection. Overall length is 41.25 inches. Please note that due to the carbon content of the sword there may be minor rusting.
