High medieval one-handed sword (Oakeshott type XIIa) incl. scabbard, SK-B battle ready.

This beautiful high medieval sword was made after a model of Konrad of Thuringia, Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights from 1239 to 1240. The original piece, classified as Type XIIa according to Oakeshott typology, can be admired in the German Historical Museum in Berlin.

The blade was made of spring steel (EN45), which is tempered to approx. 48-50 HRC. It is forged through to the pommel, where it is riveted to the end of the handle. The striking edges and the tip are rounded to 2mm, which makes it suitable for show fighting. The guard and pommel are made of steel. The handle is made of wood and decorated with diamond-shaped carvings.
The sword scabbard has a wooden core and was covered with leather and equipped with a carrying strap.

General warranty notice for swords

Our display weapons are subject to the legal warranty of two years like all other goods. However, it should be noted that the burden of proof of defects (eg material defects), which were already present at the time of purchase and have not been claimed within 6 months, lies with the customer. Complaints after 6 months are therefore often difficult and unfortunate for both sides. A show sword is by its very nature a wear and tear item. Even the best and most expensive show sword will become chipped after heavy use, the guard can become wobbly and the handle loose. This is normal, because strong forces act on the material. There may even be the unlikely case of these blades breaking when they are already weakened by quite a few and deep nicks. These are therefore usually not justified reasons for complaint but normal wear and tear. A used show sword shows signs of use after use.
