Medieval Swords

The Medieval Sword developed in the course of the early and high Middle Ages from the Viking Sword with straight blade, which was widespread throughout Europe, and was usually carried together with a shield. The technique of the Medieval Sword differs clearly from the cutting technique of the oriental sabers or far eastern samurai swords with their curved blades. Real Medieval Swords are available as extraordinary, highly decorative collector's swords, impressive showpieces and usable swords with a hardened and honed blade, made from stainless steel, classic carbon steel or hand-forged Damascus.
