For more than 400 years areas of Spain had shifted borders with the occupying Arabs that moved into Spain after the first Moorish invasion. During this long period of settlement their art and building styles greatly influenced the Spanish people. That influence is plain to see in this slashing sword. Though gunpowder was changing the face of warfare, wide cutting swords were still in use. The fancy parts are steel while the grip is wood wrapped in leather cord. An unusual and well-balanced sword. Made by Windlass Steelcrafts. Includes scabbard.
Windlass Steelcrafts has been manufacturing high quality weapons and handicrafts since its inception in 1943. Its founder, Mr. V. P. Windlass set up a manufacturing plant to supply British Gurkha regiments with Kukris, their famous sidearm. Through some key partnerships, Windlass Steelcrafts started exporting to United States and Western Europe in 1979 and since then, have outfitted many armies of the world, provided props to some of the largest Hollywood productions, designed and manufactured some amazing licensed replicas for many top collectible companies and have continued to create products that are both fully functional weapons and works of art.
