Hand-and-a-Half Gothic Sword

The hand-and-a-half sword, commonly called a bastard sword from the French épée bâtarde, was among the most effective and popular blade forms of the medieval era.

Prized for the flexibility of switching between a one-handed and two-handed grip as the fighting situation demanded, this Gothic-styled version pairs that versatile blade form with the fluted aesthetic associated with the 15th-century German Gothic armouring tradition.

This reproduction recreates that versatile hand-and-a-half sword, suited to re-enactment, display, or collection.
