Kingston Arms Rhinelander Bastard Sword

Our Rhinelander Bastard Sword returns under the Kingston Arms brand. Refined and better balanced than its predecessor, our new version delivers devastating cuts and penetrating thrusts. A new 7" leather wrapped grip tapers evenly in the hand and allows for excellent purchase both single and two-handed. The peened pommel is smooth and seamless fitting perfectly in the palm of most hands. A deep ridged fuller offers a unique blade profile ideal for cut and thrusts.

Typical of late 15th century central European cut-and-thrust swords, this handsome piece that will be appreciated by both collectors and cutting enthusiasts. The ring-guard hilt and scent-stopper pommel balance a fullered blade, forged in 5160 high-carbon steel and hardened to 54HRc for an optimal combination of edge-holding and resilience. A leather-wrapped scabbard is included.
