The original sword has resided in the\u00a0<strong>Royal Armouries collection<\/strong>\u00a0since before 1916 and its exact origin before that is unknown. These types of short swords were popular sidearms for billmen and archers during the\u00a0<strong>Wars of the Roses<\/strong>\u00a0and into the early\u00a0<strong>Tudor period<\/strong>. Thousands of swords similar to this would have seen action in battles like\u00a0<strong>Towton<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Barnet<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Tewkesbury<\/strong>, and\u00a0<strong>Bosworth<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>This example features a single-edge blade, with subtle transitions of cross-section and clever hollow grinding, and a fuller to make it lighter. It has a graceful hollow ground front edge and a slender but strong point with a thick spine able to deal with the rigors of fighting armoured opponents in jacks, mail, and plate.<\/p>\n<p>This replica is crafted with a hand-forged blade by a skilled blacksmith using modern 1080 high-carbon steel that is fully tempered and is distally tapered for proper weight distribution.<\/p>\n<p>The sheath is made with a wood body and covered with leather. The tip is reinforced with a brass chape. At the throat, the leather extends upward and covers part of the guard at the ricasso.<\/p>\n<p>Made by\u00a0<strong>Windlass Steelcrafts<\/strong>, the original can be seen in the\u00a0<strong>Royal Armouries Collection, Object Number IX.144.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Includes a certificate of authenticity on heavy stock. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>SPECIFICATIONS<\/u><\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Overall<\/strong>: 32&#8243;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Blade<\/strong>: 27-1\/4&#8243;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Guard<\/strong>: 6-1\/16&#8243; wide overall<\/li>\n<li><strong>Blade width at ricasso<\/strong>: 1-1\/2&#8243;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Blade is distally tapered<\/strong>: 1\/4&#8243; thick at guard, 1\/16&#8243; at tip<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wt<\/strong>: 1 lb, 15 oz.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Material<\/strong>: 1080 High Carbon Steel<\/li>\n<li><strong>Edge<\/strong>: Single edge, Single bevel<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Made by Windlass Steelcrafts\u00ae<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Official Royal Armouries Licensed Product.
