The Oakeshott Type XIIA Sword is a good example of the kind used for civilain carry. Lighter than a battle sword, it excelled in cutting for unarmored combat. The grip is long for two-hand use with a row of studs under the fine leather for a very firm hold. The pommel (type T2) and guard (style 8) are bright brass for easy care. The unsharpened high carbon steel blade is thin and tempered to a good spring. Includes a leather scabbard with brass accents.
Overall Length: 45'' Blade: 36 1/4'' Weight: 2 lb 14 oz Retail Price: $169.95 |
