Description

The Primus version has been developed with close attention to these historical characteristics. The hilt is cast in brass with detailed relief work, reflecting the ornate decoration of the original artifact. The pommel follows a traditional multi-part construction, with the tang secured internally and reinforced through riveted assembly, replicating historical methods rather than simplified modern techniques.

The blade is forged from EN45 high carbon steel, featuring a broad double-edged profile with a central fuller. The geometry maintains appropriate thickness and taper, ensuring both durability and historically accurate handling characteristics.
Another version comes with a pattern welded Damascus blade for reeenactment/ educational purposes only.

The grip is constructed with a wooden core, tightly bound in braided wire or leather depending on variant, providing a secure and period-appropriate hold. The sword is paired with a wooden scabbard covered in stitched leather and finished with detailed bronze fittings and a suspension loop for belt carry.

This model is available in two functional configurations. The standard version is intended for reenactment use, while the combat version features an edge thickness of approximately 2 to 2.5 mm for controlled light combat. Both versions are supplied blunt.
