This handforged Norman Long Sword is a faithful representation of the blades carried by Norman knights during the High Middle Ages. Forged from robust high-carbon steel, the sword features a broad, straight Type XI blade that delivers the clean lines and tapered point typical of the period. Every detail has been carefully crafted by skilled smiths to reflect traditional forging methods, from the heat treatment to the final polish.
The crossguard is crafted in a classic straight style, offering dependable hand protection while maintaining an elegant silhouette. The pommel is shaped into a disc form, peened securely to the tang to ensure lasting structural strength—a hallmark of authentic medieval swords.
A highlight of this sword is its leather-wrapped grip, designed to feel substantial without being unwieldy. It delivers excellent handling whether you are practicing drills or displaying it as part of your collection.
This sword comes complete with a premium scabbard, made with a sturdy hardwood core in brown leather and reinforced with polished steel chape and throat. Multiple adjustable straps allow you to secure it comfortably on a belt for transport or presentation.
While the blade is unsharpened for safety, it is forged and assembled for real handling—not merely decorative wall mounting. It is suitable for controlled training, stage combat, and educational demonstration, though it is not intended for live cutting or test strikes.
This Norman Long Sword with Scabbard is an ideal piece for enthusiasts, collectors or anyone inspired by the legacy of medieval Europe.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS:
• Clean and lightly oil the blade after each use to prevent rust
• Do not use for cutting hard targets or striking rigid surfaces
• Store in a dry environment, avoiding prolonged sheathing
• Periodically check that the pommel remains secure
• Use a leather conditioner to maintain the scabbard’s suppleness ⭐
