Product description
A beautiful medieval sword by Windlass Steelcraft based on medieval swords used by the Order of the Knights Templar. The Knights Templar was a medieval order of knights who went to war to the Holy Land. In terms of structure, their order resembled a monastic order. Several famous medieval historical figures were knights Templars, like Godfrey de Bouillon and Hughes de Payens. Knights Templar Swords were decorated with the religious symbols of the Order of the Knights Templar. The Templar cross is depicted on the blade, pommel and cross-guard of this replica sword. The pommel shows a coin dedicated to the templar knight Bohemond II. The cross-guard shows a text on both sides: Christ vincit and Christ regnat. This means: Christ conquers and Christ rules. This shows the unshakable faith of the temple knights in Christ and the faith in their mission. The sword has a deep fuller so it has quite a light weight. The grip is wrapped with brown leather in a cross motif. The sword is delivered including a beautiful medieval scabbard with sword belt so you can wear it around your waist. The scabbard is decorated with Templar seals and Templar crosses. A nice sword for on the wall or for reenactment. When bluntened, it is an excellent battle ready sword for sword fighting and a perfect training sword for Historical European Martial Arts.
