PRODUCT DETAILS

During the early Highland era, swords predominantly featured double-edged "broadsword" blades. However, by the time of the Battle of Culloden in 1746, single-edged "backswords" had gained comparable popularity. Replicating an original sword from the Royal Armouries in England dating back to around 1760, Paul Chen's Basket-Hilt Backsword showcases a distinctive basket hilt adorned with twin engraved "horned beastie" plaques. Its blade boasts twin fullers running along most of its length, with a German origin.

This version of the sword presents an antiqued finish, with the hilt expertly crafted from stainless steel by Hanwei to minimize maintenance, and finished with a museum-quality patina. The high-carbon blade also bears a light "antiqued" appearance for added authenticity. The grip is adorned with wire-wrapped genuine rayskin, while the basket liner, faithful to the original, is crafted in fabric-covered leather. 

The scabbard is elegantly covered in leather. For the bright-finished version of this sword, please refer to Hanwei model SH2002. Immerse yourself in the historical allure with this exceptional Basket-Hilt Backsword replica.
