The Celts never missed an opportunity to throw a dash of style into anything they created. Yeah, it wasn't easy stacking hundreds of tons of stones on top of other stones in a perfect circle to make the world's largest Pez Dispenser (or whatever that Stonehenge thing is used for), but the Celts did it anyway. In that same vein, sure, it's hard to make semi-circular guards on a sword. But it was a staple of Celtic Weapon smithing and was one of the many things that really set their swords apart from everyone else's.

This Celtic shortsword is a perfect example of this type of guard design. The polished steel semicircle that forms the guard is accented with brass rivets and fits snugly over the flared forte of the sword's blade. The blade is forged from our rugged high-carbon steel and is oak-leaf shaped, another tell-tale sign of Celtic design (the Greeks also used this style quite a bit). A leather-wrapped wood grip is wrapped by evenly spaced brass bands for additional beauty and grip. The top of the brass pommel is domed, with a flat cylinder perpendicular to it, making it look like you sliced the beautiful planet Saturn in half and mounted it gently on the end of your sword.

The Celtic Shortsword comes with a custom black leather sheath that features a partial side-slit to allow the flared blade to be removed easily. A brass hanging ring on the sheath lets you attach it to a belt or baldric with no fuss. Grab one now and show the world that your warrior spirit lives inside an artist's body.

Overall Length:27 Inches
Blade Length: 21.5 Inches
Blade Width at widest point:2.75 Inches
Materials: Blade: High Carbon Steel. Guard and Pommel: Polished brass. Grip: Leather-wrapped wood with brass banding.

Comes with Leather Sheath.

Celtic short sword not tempered
Bought the available non tempered short sword as a gift for my husband to commemorate his miraculous survival of emergency open heart surgery from aortic dissection. Engraving is excellent, and although i kept it simple, will be looking forward to other commemorative gifts or adding more engraving to current sword to add more "gravitas"...very much enjoyed the photos of others' engraving examples to inspire me for future gifts. Ordering was easy and sword arrived as expected for delivery date and very well packaged. I appreciated the wide range of swords etc to choose from too. Husband really likes the sword....

Our second blade purchase, beautiful piece!
This piece was a birthday gift for my husband, who had picked out this piece so he could have an ancestral land logo placed on the guard. It's just beautiful and the correspondence and response to my questions was quick and accurate. We will without question return here when our needs present. Thanks again for a beautful piece for our collection.

Perfect
An excellent sword. The engraving on both sides was even and without blemish. Sword is well balanced. Pommel is a little cumbersome but not enough to cause me to give the sword a review less that 5 stars. For the price, this sword is amazing. The previous reviews regarding the brass bands on the handle seem to have been address, as I have noticed no play with the brass bands on the leather. It's a simply beautiful weapon.

Very Happy
I am very happy my experience overall. There was a slight delay in the order earlier in the process, but that was sorted out through mails which were promptly responded to and very much to my satisfaction. International shipping costs scored me a free engraving, so 'Hearth Protector' is named, to my delight! The blades performance is exactly what I have been seeking. I have not had any trouble with the hilt myself at this point, although I will be replacing it with a custom handle made from local woods, but that's a style decision ;) only 4 stars because I cant give an extra three quarter star, and I don't believe in perfection. :D

Great Customer Service
I got it as a birthday gift for my daughter. The customer service was excellent! They worked with me over the phone on a custom engraving and got it shipped quickly. I was not expecting much due to the low price. When I opened the box I was VERY happy on how well they did on the engraving and look of the sword. I plan to buy with them again.

Good sword for the price
Tom's review from Canada says most of what I would agree with, especially with the brass rings on the grip. I bought this sword as a wedding gift with an appropriate engraving, and both came out better than I expected given the relatively low price for a battle-ready sword. Definitely good as a gift, reasonably good as a weapon.

Celtic short sword
over all this was is a great sword, the craftsmanship on the blade is very good and the hilt is strong. Though where the blade and hilt connect there is a small gap, but it has never wiggled or rattled during the tests i put it through. It is a little top heavy which is to be expected from a leaf blade sword but the pommel does a reasonable job of fixing this. The sword would have been given 4 stars if not for the fact that the brass bands that fun around the grip are a little loss which causes them to scratches the leather and hurts the hands a bit. but over all the sword is very well built and beautiful.
