This listing has been REMOVED and is no longer active
I have decided to downsize my small collection and have two very different custom arming swords for sale:
A lovely XIII century sword, a hybrid between a mounted knights' weapon and a sword and shield type. Also a replica of a historical original. By Davis Reproductions. I have to note that the scabbard, although simple, is very well made. It provides a great fit for the sword and sits comfortably at your side when moving around. My favourite part of this sword is the pommel. Together with a short grip, it provides superior control of the blade. It is based on a few originals. I have pictures on my computer, from the maker and my own research. This sword is new, unused.
A hybrid of type XV and XVI by Maciej Kopciuch. I was really impressed with aesthetics of this one when I saw it on the maker's webpage. It is not a typical sword, according to Oakeshott's typology but looks like one that might have existed in the past. I got it from a trade from its US owner. It was very carefully sharpened by the previous owner as it was dull from the maker (as is common with Maciej's swords). It also had plenty of scuffs from new. My favourite part of this sword is the guard. It has a shape that is deceivingly simple but complex at the same time. It almost a weapon in itself. And, like a good sculpture, there is nothing left to remove. I have used this sword to cut a few pool noodles and water bottles which added a few extra scuffs.
I imported both of these swords from the USA, which meant a lot of extra cost. That must be reflected in my asking prices, unfortunately. I would love things to be simpler and cheaper for EU customers, but it is what it is.

Small bump. I just want to let anyone who might be interested know that I will be unavailable for a while, starting next week. So, if you want any of these swords, this week is the best time to finalize the deal. Otherwise, they will be available again, but in the more distant future.
