Sword of the Black Prince, Windlass
The Black Prince was truly his father's descendant. As the son of King Edward III, one of England's great warrior kings, the Prince of Wales was probably the most romantic figure of the entire Middle Ages. At the tender age of 16, Edward of Woodstock commanded a wing of the army and distinguished himself at the Battle of Crécy, where he crushed a numerically superior French force. At the Battle of Poitiers, he was in sole command and repeated his David and Goliath act. Illness took his life before he could assume the crown, but he left a legacy of heroism surpassed by few. His English contemporaries considered him one of the greatest knights of his time and a model of chivalry.
His sword hung over his grave and was said to have been stolen by Oliver Cromwell. In the mid-20th century, a sword identical to the weapon engraved in his likeness emerged and was acquired by Ewart Oakeshott. Mr. Oakeshott carefully examined the sword, its patina, construction, and maker's mark, and was satisfied that it was the Black Prince's sword.
This sword was developed at a time when swordmakers were working feverishly to create a more effective sword that could also be used against the evolving plate armor. It is an extremely effective example of a piercing sword with some slashing ability. The diamond-shaped cross-section of the blade is rigid enough to allow a powerful two-handed stab through plate armor.
The 1075 carbon steel blade has a straight guard with a downward curve and a leather-wrapped handle. The disc knob has a bevel that slopes down to a smaller disc imprinted with a four-headed clover.
