| French Napoleonic 1801 Cuirassier Sword Windlass (501866) |
Points: 10
|
French Model 1801 Cuirassier’s sword is a heavy cavalry saber with a straight blade, as the French favored the thrust over slashing or cutting. This replica weighs a little over 3 lbs, the substantial mass needed to accomplish a lance-type thrusting attack. The distally tapered blade is over 1/4” thick at the hilt and is double-fullered like the originals.

| King Henry V Sword Windlass (501780) |
Points: 20
|
King Henry V Sword was designed to be a superb weapon - simple, practical, and of high quality. The enormous, thick pommel looks misleadingly heavy, but is actually hollow. The raised rims on either side were brazed onto an inner iron disc. The recesses in the pommel were gilded with gold and accentuated with painted red crosses at the time of the king's funeral.

Points: 15

In 1461, Edward IV led a Yorkist army against King Henry VI’s Lancastrians at Towton. A snowstorm favored the Yorkist archers, forcing 20,000 Lancastrians to charge downhill. Thousands died in one of England’s bloodiest battles. Named for that clash, our sword has a sharp, tapered blade, fine balance, and well-tempered steel.
