17th Century German Military Cut-and-Thrust Sword
Circa 1600: this is one of the most practical and prolific swords we have ever offered. With several examples found in prestigious collections such as the Wallace Collection and the Bavarian National Museum, this sword represents the quintessential German military cut-and-thrust swept hilt carried by the Munich Town Guard. Renowned for its slightly shorter blade and stout hilt, this weapon was ideal for breaking up street fights or tavern brawls, tasks commonly undertaken by the town guard. Clearly designed for practical use, it offers a balance of cutting and thrusting capabilities that made it a favored tool for law enforcement in bustling urban centers.
Our meticulously crafted replica boasts a sharp, well-tempered blade made from 1065 high carbon steel, providing exceptional strength and durability. The steel pommel and guard add to its robust construction, while the wood grip is wrapped in twisted steel wire, ensuring a secure and comfortable hold. This combination of materials and design elements results in a weapon that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
Made by the renowned craftsmen at Windlass Steelcrafts, this sword comes complete with a high-quality scabbard, making it a perfect addition to any collection. Whether for historical reenactment, display, or practical use, this 17th century German military sword captures the essence of a bygone era with precision and authenticity.
