Edged Weapons
The dagger is a small, easily concealed weapon. Our designs begin with a simple functional style. For a modest additional cost we can decorate the hilt with fretwork or jewels.
A rapier is a long, slender, two-edged sword complete with cup-like hilt. Unique and ornate features can be added to the blade and basket and handle including tracings, gems and family emblems for additional cost.
A small sword is quite a new innovation in edged weaponry. Also known as a court sword or dress sword, this is a light one-handed sword designed for thrusting. It is customary to embellish a small sword, and unique, ornate decoration can be added to the blade, basket, and handle. These can including tracings, gems and family emblems and will be at an additional cost.
A long sword is a traditional, heavier sword frequently carried by members of the various military regiments, often required as a part of their uniform.
A scabbard can be either a small safety sheath for housing a dagger, or a large safety sheath for housing a rapier or small sword. For additional cost embellishments can be added to any scabbard.
