Description
This longsword was developed by Angus Trim for Kingston Arms especially for HEMA activities. The blade of this sword has a wide fuller, this solves two problems. 1, sharp swords have too thin a blade to fight safely with. 2 , Battle-Ready swords often have too thick a blade to represent historical swords. With this longsword you have the weight and maneuverability of a sharp historical sword combined with the safety and blunt edges you prefer on the battlefield. The tip is also fully rounded. In addition to Historical European Martial Arts, this sword is also very suitable for 15th century re-enactment. This sword is delivered including a wooden scabbard covered with leather. The pommel is peened, which means that the tang construction goes through the pommel and is riveted to the top.

This item is produced in limited quantities only. This means that every piece is unique. Sizes & finish may vary lightly from piece to piece.
Prevent rust and corrosion by oiling your weapons regularly. Remove rust easily with black sandpaper. Remove burrs with a whetstone. Make sure you have removed all burrs before using a battle-ready weapon, as they can cause wounds.
Maintenance & care
Just as with weaponry, you can care for your shoes and leatherware by applying a little Ballistol after cleaning. This prevents the leather from drying out.
Tip: How to adjust the finish of your armour and weaponry
Luxurious (polished)- polish the steel with metal polish or toothpaste. You can even give the item a mirror-like polish. Test on a small surface first!
Handmade (matte)- soak the steel in cola for 40 minutes to 20 hours. Check regularly and treat with black sandpaper.
Antique (patinated) leave the steel to rust for some time in a damp environment, preferably outside. Remove the red layer of rust, to reveal the corroded top layer.
