French Napoleonic Infantry Briquet – Deepeeka

(1 customer review)

$77.00$104.95

The French Briquet Short Sword was one of the most common French infantry swords of the Napoleonic Wars. Features a thick carbon steel blade and solid brass D guard hilt. Includes a matching wood scabbard with leather wrap and brass accents.

Although ”battle ready” by virtue of the type of steel and construction, Deepeeka’s swords are very thick and quite blade heavy. As a result they can be very difficult to sharpen into good cutting swords. They are better suited to display, collecting and reenactment.

    This is one of Deepeeka’s best products, and it just happens to be one of their cheapest also. Yes it’s probably a bit heavier than historically accurate, but that is the only thing bad you could say about this blade. I had mine sharpened by KoA and it cuts as fine as swords I own that were many times more expensive. I’ve hacked this sword into firewood, cut branches off trees and sabered many bottles of champagne open with it. Still as sturdy as the day I bought it and the edge has held up great. This is a Deepeeka sword worth owning.
