The longsword is a type of European sword used during the late medieval and Renaissance periods, approximately 1250 to 1550.
The longsword is commonly held in combat with both hands, though it may be used single-handed. Longswords are used for striking, cutting, and thrusting. The specific offensive purpose of an individual longsword is derived from its physical shape. All parts of the sword are used for offensive purposes, including the pommel and crossguard.
This longsword is easily used one handed, or two handed, effectively placing it in the hand and a half category of longswords. The blade of the sword is made of high-carbon steel, and has no edge or tip. For that reason, this piece is perfect for theatrical and tournament use. The grip is leather wrapped for more comfortable usage.
