Schiavona
Price $414.95
Almost every major arms and armor collection boasts at least one schiavona. Almost all have a steel basket, made in a great variety of forms for protection of the sword hand and wrist, and a brass "cat's head" pommel. It was typically fitted with a double edged blade that was made for swordplay that utilizes the cut as the main combat tactic. The swordsman, armed with a schiavona and buckler, would be hard to stand against, and woe to an opponent armed with a rapier. A beautiful and important sword that saw use throughout Europe. Made from well tempered, high carbon steel.
