Description
During the 1400’s and onward specialty swords for training and dueling in full plate armour were manufactured across Europe. While a more serious study of these swords could certainly be done, Regenyei Armory has chosen to manufacture a near-replica “after” the example found in the Hofjagd- und Rüstkammer found in Vienna, Austria, though not as thick bladed. Note the rebated section midway down the blade for armoured combatants to more comfortably (and safely!) grip the blade during training and/or combat. This particular type of grip, with one hand on the grip of the sword and the other on the blade is known as “half-swording” according a number of historical fencing manuals.
