Guingate Sword
Maximilian was a great lover of the implements of war, actually designing some armor that has since been named for him. But more impressively, he was never one to hold back when there was a good fight going on. In 1479, King Louis invaded the Netherlands, where he was met by the Emperor Maximilian. In the short bloody battle, the French cavalry defeated the Imperial Horse, but in the end the field was held by the Flemish infantry, with the Emperor fighting on foot in their midst.

In honor of the battle we have named this sword the Guingate. The original was photographed at an auction and replicated here. Blade is hand forged of high carbon steel by Windlass Steelcrafts, employing the high center ridge of the original. So strengthened, this blade is easily capable of either cutting or thrusting with equal efficiency. Pommel and guard are a beautiful finished brass, gorgeously setting off the camel bone grip. Includes a leather scabbard.

Overall length: 40"; Blade length: 33.25"; Weight: 2 lbs.
