The long series of campaigns
between England and France from 1337 to 1453, known collectively
as the Hundred years War (although it actually spanned 120
years), all took place in France. The war had its origin in
disputes over lands held in fief by the English crown, the
aid given by the French to the Scots in their wars against
England and French interference with the profitable wool trade
between the English and Flemish cities. The war began when
Edward III of England claimed his right to the French throne
through his mother Isabella, daughter of the French King Philip
IV. We have chosen two sword types, one French, one English,
that saw service during this period . Made by Windlass Steelcrafts®.
Includes leather scabbard.
