Did you know that AFS is the North America's oldest and largest supplier of theatrical combat swords and daggers? For the budding barbarian in your clan, we have single and hand-and-a-half broadswords with wooden scabbards. These swords have high carbon steel blades, full tangs and are fully tempered. They are very nicely finished with contoured leather-wrapped grips and steel fittings and are completely hand made. Since they are for stage combat, they have no sharp edges or points, but should still be treated with respect and safety: Both come with wooden scabbards. Single Hand Broadsword (#118HW, $120.00)
Hand-and-a-Half Broadsword (#119HW, $130.00) We also have a selection of Armoury weapons chosen for looks, popularity and ease of production.
