3D Model

Now reduced in price

Even though it was the advent of guns, in this era, the sword was still the major side weapon of most anyone with a reason to stay alive. This sword is a broadsword, which at the time became more and more rare. They can still be seen as the famous Scottish basket-hilt swords or the German Katzbalger often used by the Landsknechts. This Dutch sword however is very minimal in terms of a basket, even in decorations it’s not exessively lavish, of which can conclude this sword was likely owned by a common soldier or burgher.
