Early Saxon swords of the 5th and 6th centuries had long straight blades and often had this distinct waisted hilt, these swords were often embellished with knotwork or depictions o f stylised animals. These were the swords of the Saxon warriors and to own one was to be a member of a warrior elite. As much as I wouldn't call this a long sword, its bloody long for swords from this region and time. I love the way this feels in the hand and it makes me want to splinter shields! This sword features a fullered EN45 spring steel blade and authentic waisted hilt.
