Iberian Falcata – Brass Handle

The brass-handled Falcata represents the type in its most visually striking form — the forward-curving single-edged blade of the Celtiberian tradition mounted in a solid brass hilt that would have gleamed in the Iberian sun and signalled both the quality of the blade and the status of its owner. A piece that captures the decorative ambition of Celtiberian weapon-making alongside its formidable martial character.

Brass and bronze hilts on Falcatas appear across the archaeological record of ancient Iberia — from the Almedinilla cemetery in Córdoba to the Cabré catalogue of Spanish Iron Age weapons. The choice of brass for the hilt elevated the Falcata beyond a purely functional weapon into an object of display and personal identity, the metalwork reflecting the skilled bronze-casting tradition of Celtiberian craftspeople.

The EN45 high carbon steel blade of this version features a single fuller running along the spine — the same functional feature found across Falcata types, reducing weight while maintaining the structural integrity needed for the powerful downward cuts the Falcata was designed to deliver. The 18-gauge construction provides the robustness expected of a working replica.

Deepeeka’s brass-handle Falcata offers collectors a visually striking alternative to the bone and wood grip versions in the range — the solid brass hilt providing a weight and warmth that distinctly different from the other materials, and creating a display piece of considerable visual impact.
