Their
single-hand Marshall Sword sets (PC2000, PC2001 - Damascus)
new standards of quality and authenticity in broadsword
construction. The sword is based on an original, now in
a British musuem, used by one of England’s finest
knights, Sir William Marshall, who served the crown faithfully
under Henry II, Richard the Lionheart and Jack Lackland.
The
single-hand Marshall Sword is available with either a
forged high-carbon steel blade (Model PC2000) or a forged
- folded Swedish powder steel blade (Model PC2001).
Both
blades are identical in handling characteristics and both
are tempered to a tough HRC 52. The blade section features
a central ridged fuller and full-length distal taper -
a tough test for the bladesmith but resulting in a superb
combination of speed and strength. The grip is leather
wrapped and laced and the guard and pommel are elegant
in their functional simplicity.
The
scabbard is leather-covered with steel mounts. Truly a
sword for the connoisseur.
