Crusader Knight's Medieval Arming Sword with Christian Cross on the Pommel

There is no soldier more dangerous than one fighting in the name of their faith. The Crusades pitted Christian knights against Muslim warriors, and both sides fought like men whose souls hung in the balance. This Crusader sword is a historical replica of the arming swords used by Knights Templar in those holiest of wars.

The Crusader (this sword) is hand-forged from high-carbon steel. It features a full tang and a satisfyingly padded leather grip. Add in the rugged steel guards and you have a powerful sword that is buit to last.

But the true soul of this blade is in the pommel. It's similar to an Oakeshott Type I (for those who follow that sort of thing)and is deeply etched with the Christian cross under which the crusaders lived and died. Eight brass studs for a perimeter around the pommel, adding a touch of contrast and color.

So, whether you want to show other that you are willing to fight for your faith, or you simply want to own a piece of history, then the Crusader Knight's Arming Sword is the way to go. And with the new, fuller-less blade, you are free to create an engraved masterpiece using our online engraving utility.

The Crusader sword comes with a factory sharpened edge but if you would like it dulled please feel free to contact Strongblade and we will dull the edge at no extra charge.
