"We are the guardians of our people. We stand strong against all invaders. Duty is our shield, order: our weapon. When we defend the weak, we are...immortal." Two Handed Swords are also known as the Great sword and Zweihander. A two handed sword is a large sword that is up to about 6 feet in length. The sword was used from the middle of the 15 century to the late16 century. The name evolved because it took two hands to use the sword in battle. These swords were mainly used for swing rather than thrusting, to crush through heavy armour that was used. The two handed sword is a double edged sword with a round point. The hilt was straight or slightly curved quillons while the grip was very long. The pommel was either triangular, faceted or pear-shaped to balance the weapon. Around late 16 century heavy armour disappear because of firearms so the two-handed sword was only used for ceremonial purposes. Our Two Handed swords can be used for display or for battle re-enactments, each reproduction is created to the specifications of the original. The dimensions are accurate on every piece so you get a medieval weapon toy that is actually balanced and fun to hold instead of just pretty to look at. Medieval times were sometimes brutal, sometimes romantic, but always a source of intrigue. You can display them in your office, home or for Medieval Reenactments.
