This sword was designed by Angus Trim using Oakeshott's Type XIIIa specifications, seen in swords used in the 12th to early 13th centuries. This was a transitional time from hardened leather to mail armor, with the added protection of plate armor in vital areas.
This performance oriented sword has a blade hand forged from mono tempered 9260 high carbon spring steel and flat ground with a handsome satin finish, giving it impressive flexibility, resilience, and shock resistance.
Equipped with high quality stainless steel fittings, it is further complemented with a solid wood core handle. This is cord wrapped for strength, and has a textured leather over-wrap to provide a comfortable and secure grip. The sword comes sheathed in a solid wood core scabbard featuring a stainless steel shape and stitched leather wrap.
While self customization is possible, it is important to note that any modifications can change Gus's handling characteristics of the sword.
