Iberia swords are crafted in much the same way as swords were
made centuries ago, except that the blades are now forged from
high-carbon spring steel, a resource unavailable off-the-shelf
to the smiths of old. The blade finish is far from being polished,
again more closely replicating what the medieval swordsmith
was able to achieve. The grips are carved in wood, often with
a leather or cord wrap to better replicate the originals on
which the designs were based. Fittings are either steel or solid
brass. Leather scabbards are included where shown. These swords
will appeal to the re-enactor who wants a sword with the same
appearance as the original.
These Scottish Claymores range will accommodate the tastes
of most clansmen. The SR077 (middle) and SR014 (Left) models
differ in that the distinctive dropping quillons, quatrefoils
and pommels are crafted of steel in the SR077 model and solid
brass in the SR014. The grips of both of these models are of
macassar ebony. The Robert the Bruce Claymore (Right) features
a leather-covered grip with brass rings and the diamond shaped
quillons found on many period pieces. The leather-wrapped ricasso,
a feature found on many larger two-handed swords, provided extra
leverage in close combat.
