Description
Some specifications of the product –
The replica of the Xiphos Sword is made out of 6mm thick high carbon steel and the edges are hammered down to 2.5mm in thickness. The handle and the pommel are wood, while the cross-guard is polished cast iron. There is a washer in the middle of the tang and the pommel to protect the wooden surface. The replica scabbard of the Xiphos Sword is made of engineered wood, covered in goat leather. There are wooden fittings on the neck and toe of the scabbard.
The original blade artifact is on display in the British Museum by the name of Short Sword (Xiphos type)
This was quite a surprise, honestly.
Nimble, sturdy and light, honestly even compared to their kopis (which is excelent) it’s a great sword!
The xiphos is great quality, especially for the price. It’s well balanced and while a bit too heavy the weight is still correct.
Scabbard has a wooden core and is not too tight. And easily customisable.
Great product !
A good reproduction for the price. The blade is well made, but on the heavy side. The staff is flexible and reshaped the scabbard to my specifications.
Only downside, the scabbard is a bit too tight, but at least you won’t loose your Xiphos.
Beautiful piece of art for the price, very good craftmanship, perfect size compare to the original artifacts. The weight and balance also very pleasant, plus tight scabbard with wooden core. I’m nice surprised 👍
Excellent xiphos! Was very happy with it!
