#078 German Branch Sword
A wonderful replica of a famous 15th century riding sword. It is very light and fast, with a thin stiff blade ideal for the thrust. The design of twisted branches, called the gothic bough style, was a popular motif for swords in the north central regions of Europe. The term "riding sword" designated a sword that was worn as a personal side arm. The grip is hand carved hardwood with a gloss finish. The mid ring, with roped detail, and lower bezel are bronze. The furniture can be ordered in steel or bronze.
