Scottish Basket-Hilt Broadsword (Antiqued)

Our Basket-Hilt Broadsword, replicated from an original in the collection of the Royal Armouries in England, carries a typical Glasgow-style hilt from the mid-18th century. It is likely that the blade of the original sword, marked "Andrea Ferara", was made in Germany a century earlier and re-hilted as basket designs were refined. The sword is available in both polished and antiqued finishes. Both hilts are crafted from stainless steel, to minimize maintenance, that of the normal version being polished while the "antiqued" version has a museum-quality patina. The high-carbon blade of the antiqued version is also lightly "antiqued" to promote authenticity. The grips of the broadswords are covered with wire-wrapped genuine rayskin and the basket liners are crafted in fabric-covered leather. The scabbards are leather-covered, black in the case of the normal version and brown for the antiqued sword. This sword comes with a sharp blade. KEY FEATURES: * Historically accurate * Wire-wrapped ray skin handles * Perfect for re-enactors MEASUREMENTS: Blade length: 33 1/2" Overall length: 39 3/4" Weight: 3lb 2oz Thickness: .150 The "normal" version of this sword has the item number 13135.

Scottish Claymore

Scottish swords, like many European swords during the Middle Ages, have their origin in the earlier Norse longswords (which were themselves and evolution of the Roman Spatha). While art and surviving examples show us that many swords used in Scotland during the Middle Ages closely resembled the swords of England and the rest of Europe, distinctive Scottish designs – especially including a guard with down-turned arms, often flared at the tips. This design became closely associated with inter-clan warfare as well as Scottish conflicts with the English. By the 16th century, the single-handed Scottish sword with its down-turned quillons had evolved into a basket-hilted variety with the same double-edged blade. The Scottish Basket-Hilt sword would continue to be in use even into the 20th century, and could have been remembered as the distinctive Scottish sword. However, as the Basket-Hilt sword developed there was a parallel evolution occurring – one that scaled up the double-edged sword into a long, two-handed sword. Both Highland and Lowland varieties appeared on the scene in Scotland, but it would be the Highland Claymore – with it’s unique quatrefoil guard – that would most closely be associated with the Medieval weapons of the Scottish clans. While the first swords that would become known as Claymores appeared in the 1400’s, the claidheamh mor name – meaning “great sword” – was not commonly applied to this two-handed weapon until the 18th century. Claymores were fearsome weapons, capable of taking out even armoured foes. Its broad, heavy blade was capable of severing limbs, heads, and weapons from their owners. Some sources indicate that a Scottish warrior would advance while swinging the blade in a figure eight pattern, putting any who may approach at risk of decapitation. Even mounted foes would be at risk as a Claymore was fully capable of severing legs, even heads, from fast-moving horses. The Claymore became known not only for its presence in Scottish clan conflicts but in the ongoing border strife with English forces. Its brutal effectiveness is likely why this weapon was used well into the 18th century. Based on an early 16th century sample, the Darksword Armory Claymore is gracefully engineered as a tough high-impact, yet impressively balanced weapon. The quatrefoil quillons are carefully crafted from originals on display in the Scottish National Museum, the British Museum, The Royal Ontario Museum and The Royal Armouries (Leeds). The blade, specifically designed to deliver devastating strikes, is elegant in its simplicity. The Claymore is a weapon evocative of the Scottish highlands, and the fierce clansmen who lived, fought, and died there. Details: Blade: 5160 High Carbon Steel.

Our Basket-Hilt Broadsword carries a typical Glasgow-style hilt from the mid-eighteenth century. It is likely that the blade of the original sword was made in Germany a century earlier and re-hilted as basket designs were refined. Although the blade of the original bears the "Andrea Ferara" name, it is unlikely that it was made by this renowned Spanish swordsmith, as many good quality blades of the period were so marked (in various spellings!), irrespective of the actual maker. The forged double-edged blade of our sword is in fully tempered high-carbon steel with a solid steel basket. The grip is wire-wrapped rayskin and the basket liner is of felt-covered leather. This sword comes with a sharp blade.
