Historical and Legendary Two-Handed Swords
We have created this category of historical and legendary swords especially for the most passionate lovers of history and fantasy, like ourselves and, surely, you too. Here we offer the most faithful replicas of swords that have left their mark on history and ancient legends. Some of these are, for example, the sword of the Catholic Monarchs, Excalibur, the Masonic sword, the Templar sword, etc.
Characteristics of historical swords
Two-handed swords, as their name indicates, were larger and heavier swords, requiring two hands to wield.
Two-handed swords measure approximately 1.20 to 1.30 meters, while single-handed swords were shorter, about 1 meter.
It is important to highlight the ceremonial value of many of these two-handed swords, as they were used to knight knights.
The main difference of historical swords compared to others lies in the mark they have left on universal history. They are swords "with a past," that belonged to great personalities of antiquity, who were often responsible for the great geopolitical changes that defined the world in past times. Some of these swords are Alexander the Great's or those used by the Knights Templar.
Characteristics of legendary swords
We have included in the category of legendary swords those swords whose origin is found in ancient legends, old stories that were passed down by word of mouth and from manuscript to manuscript, until they reached our days. These stories that we have always known and that, with the passage of time, we can no longer say with certainty what part is true and what part is fantasy. These stories usually feature a character of unusual virtues, who stands out above all others for the incredible feats in which he is the protagonist. We can mention, for example, Robin Hood or Don Quixote, whose swords we have available in the form of high-quality replicas.
In this category, we offer you replicas of the most outstanding swords found in history and the most popular legends, which you could use to carry out your faithful recreation of some historical event, or simply to have a sword "with a past" in your home"
