Description

The Sword of the Highland Warrior.

Broad blade.

Iron guard.

A legend of Scotland.

The Hanwei Basket-Hilt Broadsword – Antiqued is a magnificent recreation of one of the most iconic Scottish swords ever carried into battle. Favoured by Highland clansmen, officers and noblemen during the 17th and 18th centuries, the basket-hilt broadsword became a symbol of courage, honour and unwavering loyalty to clan and country.

Expertly crafted by Hanwei, this historically inspired reproduction features the unmistakable full basket hilt, providing outstanding hand protection while showcasing the intricate ironwork that defines these legendary Scottish weapons. Its beautifully antiqued finish recreates the appearance of a treasured original, giving the sword the character and presence of a genuine historical artefact.

Unlike the backsword, the traditional broadsword features a double-edged blade, offering versatility in both cutting and thrusting techniques. Combined with its balanced proportions and authentic styling, this sword is equally suited to historical collections, Scottish displays and living history events.

Whether proudly displayed in your armoury or admired as a tribute to Scotland's martial heritage, the Basket-Hilt Broadsword is a timeless masterpiece worthy of any serious collector.

Forged for the Highlands.

Preserved for history.
