Hand-and-a-Half Sword
Add a legendary blade to your collection with the Hand-and-a-Half Sword.
Versatile steel. Medieval balance perfected.
The Hand-and-a-Half Sword isn’t just a weapon — it’s one of the most adaptable blades ever carried into battle. Designed to combine the speed of a one-handed sword with the power and control of a two-handed weapon, it became a favourite among knights and seasoned warriors across medieval Europe.
Often known as a “bastard sword,” this style was built for flexibility in combat. The extended grip allows the wielder to fight with one hand or two depending on the situation, offering greater control, leverage, and striking power when needed.
Its design reflects disciplined practicality. Long balanced blade. Extended hilt. Strong cross-guard. Every detail exists to support controlled, effective combat rather than unnecessary ornamentation.
Unlike oversized great-swords focused purely on raw force, the hand-and-a-half sword balances agility with authority. Fast enough for skilled technique, powerful enough for battlefield combat.
This replica captures that identity perfectly. The elegant proportions. The versatile grip. The unmistakable presence of a sword built for adaptable warriors and disciplined swordsmanship.
This sword is a traditional, hand-forged blade inspired by the Medieval period, created for collectors with an appreciation for sword craftsmanship.
