| King Henry V Sword Windlass (501780s) |
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.

| Windlass Musketeer Rapier Sword 1590 |
Points: 20
|
Our Musketeer rapier is fashioned after those circa 1590. The basket hilt is ambidextrous and a very effective mix of both the cup-hilt and swept-hilt styles. The grip is wood wrapped with twisted wire and the parts of the hilt are plated with gleaming nickel silver.

| Windlass French Napoleonic Briquet Short Sword (501867) |
Points: 10
|
This short saber was introduced in 1767, preceding the French Revolution, as a replacement for heavier and cumbersome swords like the fusilier’s ēpēe. It was instantly derided for its modest dimensions and nicknamed “Briquet” (”fire lighter”) and the name stuck and became official in 1806.

| Windlass Classic Medieval Sword (500020s) |
Points: 16
|
Sword is an Oakeshott Type X with a Type I pommel and a Type VII crossguard. The long and wide fuller on this blade lightens the overall sword and make it possible to deliver fast and shearing cuts, capable of cutting through the mail and padding that were worn during the period. The long guard offers good protection from an opponent's shield or blade, while the classic wheel pommel brings the sword very nicely into balance. This type of sword was in service for a long period of time throughout all of Europe. Made by Windlass Steelcrafts.

| Gladiator Helmet of General Maximus (880013) |
Points: 20
|
Original licensed product from the classic movie Gladiator.
Maximus Decimus Meridius (Russell Crowe) wore this helmet as general before he became a gladiator.
Made of hand worked steel with a coating of antique brass, it includes a real horsehair crest and an adjustable liner. This helmet is based directly from the screen-worn prop and is worthy of any Roman general. A silver-plated wolf's head is fixed to the front, inlayed leather along the sides and an adjustable cloth liner makes this helmet stunning as well as practical. Display stand is included. Made by Windlass Steelcrafts.

| Shogun Ryū Tatsu Katana Windlass (501874) |
Points: 12
|
The blade is forged from 1095 high carbon steel and undergoes differential clay tempering using traditional techniques. This results in a spine with a Rockwell hardness of 45-48 HRC and a harder cutting edge at 56-58 HRC. This ancient tempering method creates the distinctive hamon, the visible temper line left when the clay is removed. Each blade is meticulously honed and must cleanly slice through a sheet of paper before leaving the workshop.
