Greek Hoplite Sword

As seen on The History Channel's "Conquest".

The Greeks might be best known for their achievements in politics, mathematics, sculpture, literature and philosophy, but make no mistake, they were brilliant and fearsome warriors as well.

Marathon, Thermopylae and Salamis stand as near-legendary examples of strategic and tactical brilliance. By the time their military achievements ended the Greeks had put a dent or two in the known world.

Although the spear was the major weapon, once the lines were engaged, the sword was brought into play. The Greek sword was a dual-purpose weapon with a leaf- shaped blade designed for both cutting and thrusting.

The grip in this version is wood, just as in the originals. Scabbard included. Made from high carbon steel by Windlass Steelcrafts.

Overall length: 29"; Blade length: 23.75"; Blade width: 2"; Weight: 2 lbs. 4 oz.
