Gift Irish Ring-Pommel Sword, Scabbard Included
Irish ring-pommel sword, scabbard included. 16th century
This one-handed sword is based on several original finds and drawings of 16th-century kerns (ceithern). Kerns were light infantry soldiers who formed the bulk of the Irish armed forces in the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance. These Gaelic warriors, mostly mercenaries, demonstrated their fierce fighting spirit in many conflicts throughout the British Isles.
One of their preferred weapons was a sword with a broad blade and a distinctive ring-shaped pommel, through the center of which the end of the blade's tang was visibly passed. This unique open ring pommel was relatively typical of Irish swords from the 15th and 16th centuries. Many surviving original examples of this type have been found during archaeological excavations throughout Ireland and can be admired in various museums, including the National Museum of Ireland in Dublin.
Our affordable reconstruction of the iconic Irish Gaelic ring-pommel sword features a broad, double-edged EN45 spring steel blade that is fullered for approximately two-thirds of its length. The cutting edges are not sharpened, and the full-tang blade is screwed onto the pommel. The handle consists of an S-shaped guard approximately 19 cm long, a wooden grip tightly wrapped in black leather, and a strong ring pommel.
This beautiful piece of Irish history is delivered with a black leather and wood scabbard with a straight chape, throat, and locket made of steel.
This late Medieval/Renaissance one-handed sword is designed as a collector's piece or decorative object. It is also ideal as an accessory, for example to complete your costume, and will make your transformation into a proud Irish fighter simply perfect.
