Two-Handed Longsword.
The Longsword is a type of European sword used during the late medieval and Renaissance periods, approximately 1350 to 1550 (with early and late use reaching into the 13th and 17th centuries, respectively). Longswords have lengthy cruciform hilts with grips over some 15 cm (6 in) in length (providing room for two hands), with straight double-edged blades.
The longsword is commonly held in combat with both hands, though some may be used single-handed. Longswords are used for striking, cutting, and thrusting. The specific offensive purpose of an individual longsword is derived from its physical shape. All parts of the sword are used for offensive purposes, including the pommel and crossguard.

These swords are meticulously hand crafted. The tangs are actual full tangs, not the typical rat tail that are found in most decorative swords.

The full tang on this sword is cup peened riveted over the pommel.
