The River Witham Sword was dredged from the River Witham near the town of Lincoln during work carried out in 1788. The sword may be a remnant of the Battle of Lincoln in 1141; however, it was most likely constructed between 1250-1300 CE. The inscription on the blade reads +NDXOXCHMDRCHDXORVI+.
Features a sharpened carbon steel blade with steel guard and pommel and a leather wrapped wood grip. Includes a matching wood scabbard with black leather wrap.
