Officer's 5 Ball Spadroon

#501494
$239.95

In the age of sail, officers were expected to fight right alongside common deckhands. An officer never made his choice of weapon recklessly when he knew he to had to fight hand to hand to repel boarders. The Spadroon was lighter than a cutlass, offered a long, stiff blade, was imminently suitable for thrusting, and had a sharp edge capable of delivering a stinging cut. Original antique Spadroons are quite scarce, and far too valuable to use as actual weapons. Modeled on historical examples, the 1055 carbon blade has been hardened to a spring temper, with a combat sharp edge. It's elegant too, with a ridged faux ivory grip and a gorgeous brass hilt replete with the requisite five ball counter guard and knuckle bow. The scabbard is equally impressive. Fashioned from rich black leather, and hand stitched, comes with a mirror polished, solid brass chape, throat, and carry rings.
