Welcome to Imperial Weapons For over 15 years Imperial
Weapons has served the historical enthusiast, re-enactor, and collector. Our
longevity is derived through our tireless efforts to only offer quality medieval
swords and katana swords; such as our best selling Generation 2 medieval swords
and Bowie Knives, Windlass Steelcrafts functional medieval and fantasy swords,
Last Legend katana swords, CAS Hanwei (including the new Tinker Pearce
medieval swords), and most recently the Valiant Armory Angus Trim "Atrim"
and Christian Fletcher Signature line of medieval swords. When you buy a product whether a medieval sword, Japanese
katana, functional piece of medieval or Japanese armor, medieval chess set or
statue from Imperial Weapons you are certain to receive a product that you will
be happy with. The difference between us and other companies is that we are
sword enthusiasts and re-enactors, have handled the swords, know the product,
and know what other sword enthusiasts are looking for.
We are still under construction, but able to take orders. Product selection is still limited, but will be growing daily.

Armoury has teamed up with Christian Fletcher and Angus
Trim to create two new lines of medieval swords that have the
Atrim and Fletcher stamp of quality at a fraction of the
price! A Short History on Medieval Swords
- The swords of medieval Europe (approximately 500 to 1500 AD) evolved
from steel Celtic swords, which in turn arose from a tradition of
straight, double-edged swords which began with bronze swords as early
as 1,500 BC. At the opening of the Middle Ages these swords tended to
have blades just under a yard in length with a grip designed to
accommodate a single hand; the other hand being concerned with the grip
of a shield. By the close of the Middle Ages, swords increasingly are
stouter and more sharply pointed, being optimized for the thrust, the
cut having been rendered less effective by improvements in armour.
Similarly, with these armour improvements, the shield became redundant
and swords with hilts effectively accommodating both hands make their
appearance and grow in popularity.
