Mortuary Hilt Sword (Antiqued)
Mortuary Hilt Sword (Antiqued) Ref: CI-SH2004N
Replicated from an original in the collection of the Royal Armouries in England, our Mortuary-Hilt Sword is a classic example of a cavalry or dragoon officer’s sword of the 17th-century English Civil War period. Deriving its name from the style of sword which memorialized King Charles I, who was executed in 1649, The Mortuary Hilt Sword’s steel basket is decorated with scrolled foliage while an engraved head of Charles I appears on the pommel. The lozenge-section double-edged blade is partially fullered and bears the swordmaker’s mark “1414”, the derivation of which has been lost in time. The leather handle wrap terminates in silver wire “Turks Head” knots. The sword, like the original, is beautifully balanced. Also available in plain steel finish.

The sword's hilt is crafted from stainless steel with a museum-quality patina, to minimize maintenance. The high-carbon blade is also lightly “antiqued” to promote authenticity. The grip is covered with leather. The scabbard is covered in brown leather.

See model CI-SH2076 for the “Practical” version of the Mortuary-Hilt Sword (un-edged, for training and stage combat).
