SHAMSHIR SCIMITAR SABER SWORD METAL SHORT SWORD AND STAND - IN SOUTH AFRICA

Shamshir Scimitar Saber Sword Metal Short Sword and Stand - Bronze This Scimitar is based on the historical weapon originally developed in Persia. Made of stainless steel, the blade is paired with a metal handle and guard. The original scimitar was called a shamshir, (which meant lions tail) and had a deeply curved blade that was almost a half circle. Developed in Persia, this type of blade was effective for drawcuts, but other than that, of limited utility. This caused the blade to shift its shape into a more useful version that this weapon reflects. It comes complete with a matching scabbard. It is a beautiful and romantic sword copied from the Hank Reinhardt collection.      Key Features: Inspired by the famous Persian weapon  Great curved, effective blade  Metal Scabbard   Great for reenacting or collecting  Not Sharpened   Materials: Blade made of stainless steel  Handle made of Metal Alloy  Guard and scabbard detail are made of Metal Alloy Specifications: 1 Piece Sword with Stand Overall Length: 65cm Blade Length: 43.5cm Blade Width: 2.3cm Blade Thickness: 0.2cm Blade Steel: Stainless Steel Not Sharpened Includes Stand       Make an enquiry if you have any questions.  Please note: Pictures are for illustration purposes and colour and design may vary depending on lighting, monitor differences and time of purchase.
