Joan of Arc Sword -This
sword fashioned after a 15th century design with a little French flair.
The red enameled
Cross in the center of pommel symbolizes a true Christian Warrior of that
time. A wood scabbard that
is wrapped in leather with steel band at throat and steel tip is included.
Blade length: 27"
Handle/Hilt length: 7.5"
Overall: 34.5"
Balance Point: 4.0" Below
Hilt
Weight: 1.5 lbs.
Note: The blade
is 3/16" high carbon spring steel with a full hefty tang. We tested
it on several 2"x 4" standing up and split them with no marring on the
blade. We then tested it on a 2"x4" cross ways resting on each side
on a solid rest and came straight down. It did not cut all the way
through but it did cut deep and again did not mar the blade or edge.
We then went to the ultimate test Steel-to-SteelSM. We
did 9 good blows, it nicked the blade but did not break the blade not break
the tang or handle in either of these test.
Note .. The construction
of this sword makes it suitable for Steel-to-Steel. Also Note..This
sword (and or dagger) comes very sharp. These instruments are NOT toys, their use requires
the training and supervision of a qualified Teacher or Trainer in
sword use or fencing. Their use in ANY
other form (i.e. chopping trees down in the backyard, etc. ;-) can result
in severe injury to the user and to the
instrument, and is not warranted by Imperial Weapons. If you are not
qualified, DO NOT attempt to use these instruments
before securing qualified instruction. Owning an instrument
such as this carries with it a responsibility
to gain the instruction needed to become proficient and qualified in its
use. Users should contact a qualified Trainer
or Teacher or join a fencing club to receive proper training. The
necessary training is NOT available via
books or videos; and no, it is definitely not as easy as it looks. Imperial
Weapons, its employees, nor associated
companies, assume no responsibility for injury, damage, or loss incurred
by use of these instruments. All edged
instruments can be dangerous when handled by ill-trained or
non-trained personnel. We cannot stress
too strongly that, without exception, the user of these instruments must
get the proper training to insure their
own safety and the safety of others.
