Arguably one of the most beautiful production long swords on the market, the Malatesta is built around an Angus Trim designed 1060 carbon steel blade (based on his legendary AT1562 model) and Christian Fletcher designed fittings.
The highly detailed leather wrapped over wood core scabbard (which is done in house in the USA) is attached with an ornate sword belt and suspension system, allowing the sword to be either worn or simply as an additional dimension for a visual feast.
The grip is wood, cord-wrapped, then bound with leather and features a central swell and riser to fit the hand as ergonomically as possible.
Fast and agile, with a fullered blade limber enough to be flexible yet not so flexible as to sag or cause edge alignment problems when cutting, this sword is sharp and ready to go out of the box!
But then again, it was designed by Angus Trim, so could it possibly be any other way?
A fully functional blade for the discerning collector.
