Whether you’re fighting
from a saddle or on foot, we sure you’ll be hard pressed
to find a better weapon for the job than our Horseman’s
Basket Hilt Broadsword. Loosely modeled on English Broadswords
of the 17th and 18th centuries, it has a long double edge blade
that can deliver powerful shearing cuts well as a deadly thrusting
attack.
The handle is made of wood wrapped in Samé,
or ray skin, and bound with wire for an exceptional grip. And,
to completely protect one’s hand it comes with a full basket
hilt that’s been enlarged to accept an American sized hand.
There’s a heavy steel pommel that counter balances the
blade and serves as a lethal striking tool in its own right.
Plus, because the blade is made from modern high carbon spring
steel, it will pass the British Proof Test. It comes complete
with a heavy leather scabbard that’s reinforced by a steel
throat and chape.
