Overview
The Gunthur – Medieval Arming Sword - Deepeeka
The Gunther is knightly arming sword of the High Middle Ages of the 13th Century. Swords such as this were intended to be an everyday companion to the knight or professional man at arms and their design was well-suited for cutting and thrusting alike to ensure that its wielder could defend himself from any manner of foe. The sword is designed to be large enough for battle, but not so large as to be inconvenient for riding and everyday wear.
The blade is forged from EN45 high carbon steel which is stoutly peened into its matched hilt. The crossguard and pommel are crafted from steel and the wooden grip is bound in a wrap of tight leather. The sword is matched with a companion scabbard with a leather wrap over a wooden core.

This sword is great. The frog shown in the photos is NOT built into the scabbard and can be removed.
The balance is pretty good for a Deepeeka sword. The blade is even wider than I thought.
For the price, this is a great arming sword for reenacting!
This sword looks good and it feels good. I’m especially impressed with the scabbard, it is very well made and there is no rattling at all. Deepeeka has come a long way in their scabbard construction, I’ve returned swords almost three times this price due to an unacceptable amount of scabbard rattle.
This is a good sword. Kinda heavy for a one hander but you can see that by reading the specs. Feels very choppy in the hand. Pommel feels nice.
