WORD OF
T
ANCRED
Prince Tancred (known in French as
Tancrède de Hauteville) was a
Norman lord of Southern Italy, who
was among the first noblemen to join the Crusades in 1096. The pommel has a rep-
resentation of the red Nurit flower of Galilee on the one side, while the opposite
is adorned with the crusader cross, which Tancred adopted
during the Crusades. The hard wooden handle has been cov-
ered with soft, deep brown stitched leather, accented with
antique brass details. The imposing 2" wide blade has a deep fuller run-
ning the length, giving great balance to this mighty sword. Included is a peri-
od leather scabbard expertly stitched in matching brown suede with a long
leather belt. Made by

Circa
12th
Century
Norman
Spangenhelm
The Spangenhelm was a
popular medieval European
combat helmet design of the
Early Middle Ages. The
name is of German origin.
Spangen refers to the
metal strips that form the
framework for the helmet
and could be translated
as braces, and -helm
simply means helmet. By the 6th century it was the most
common helmet design in Europe since it was an effective
protection that was relatively easy to produce. Our helm is
18-gauge steel with strong rivets and a nasal guard. A soft
black cloth adjustable liner is inside. Manufactured by
