In the Florence Museum, there is a painting by Palliaolo of St. Michael slaying the dragon. St. Michael is using a falchion of a style that was quite popular in the late 15th and early 16th century. However, this sword has a slight variation which we feel makes it even more interesting. It appears to be double edged! Although not unknown, this was quite unusual for a falchion blade. This sword is very strong and sturdy, able to cut with great authority, but is also light and fast. The double edge also lessens the weight and makes possible a back handed drawcut, which can be quite effective. The blade of this single-hand sword is tempered high carbon steel. This is a very attractive piece with a touch of exotica about it and also a quite effective weapon, should you be a knight or man-at-arms. Comes with red leather scabbard with steel fittings.
