10th Century Type XII Medieval Sword Full Tang Tempered Battle Ready Hand Forged WR-1541-T

During the 13th and 14th C. Type XII Sword, dedicated to the cut as opposed to the thrust, became the norm. Slightly more tapered than the swords preceding the 13th C, type XII medieval sword displayed a shorter fuller, which improved the sword’s mass distribution. This newly engineered blade resulted in a sword capable of cutting as its predecessors, yet superior in the thrust.

Based on the swords of the late 13th, century, the Type XII medieval sword is an interesting example. While the straight guard and the Type XII blade (Oakeshott) was not an unlikely pairing, the fitting of a “Brazil Nut” pommel, seen mainly on medieval swords of Germanic regions of Europe, makes this weapon unique in its own right
