Pilgrim's Sword

In the middle ages, all Christians that made the long and dangerous journey to the Holy Land wore a shell as a symbol that they had made the ultimate pilgrimage.  Many knights that had fought in the ongoing crusade took the symbol as well.  This some-what crude period art shell appears on this swords pommel.  The parts are brass, the grip is leather over wood, and the blade is a long cut and slash type from tempered 1095 high carbon steel.  The scabbard is included.

Note:  This is a one of a kind sample that did not made it into production.
