17th Century Main Gauche

16th Century Irish O’Donovan Targe
SKU: AH4484This targe recreates the shield tradition of the Gaelic Irish, styled after the O’Donovan clan of the 16th century. Irish and Scottish Gaelic warriors shared closely related shield traditions, both descending from broader Celtic and medieval Western European shield-making practices. A historically grounded piece for an Irish Gaelic clan impression, distinct from the more commonly reproduced Scottish targe.

-
A basket-hilted Scottish Highland officer’s broadsword based on an original from the Eglinton Castle collection, now held in the Royal Ontario Museum — its ‘Pinch of Snuff’ nickname drawn from a mid-18th century painting depicting an officer of the 78th (Fraser’s Highlanders) with a sword of exactly this type.

German Close Helmet, 16th Century Pattern
SKU: AH6394The close helmet was a fully enclosing combat helmet worn by knights and men-at-arms in the Late Medieval and Renaissance periods, remaining in use by heavily armoured cuirassiers into the mid-17th century. This reproduction recreates a specifically German 16th-century pattern, reflecting the continued German preference for fully enclosing helmet forms. German armouring centres such as Augsburg and Nuremberg remained at the forefront of European plate armour production well into the 16th century.
-
Courtly Stiletto Dagger, Brass Hilt
SKU: AH32812A refined ‘courtly’ stiletto with an elegant brass hilt, reflecting the ornate stilettos produced for nobility once the type moved from the battlefield into the fashionable everyday dress of Renaissance and later Italian society.
-
Based on an original in the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s outstanding arms and armour collection, this late 15th to 16th century dagger reflects the transitional period between late medieval and Renaissance dagger design — a moment when the shift from armoured to unarmoured civilian combat was reshaping the tools that European men carried for personal defence.
-
Scottish Burgonet Helmet
SKU: AH6379The burgonet, sometimes called the Burgundian sallet, succeeded the sallet as a Renaissance and early modern combat helmet, characterised by a rounded skull with a fixed or hinged peak projecting above the face, an integral crest or comb running front to back, and substantial hinged cheekpieces that typically left the chin and throat exposed. This version is styled for Scottish military use, reflecting the burgonet’s adoption across Britain during the 16th and 17th centuries. British forces, including Scottish troops, adopted Renaissance helmet forms like the burgonet alongside older Highland arms traditions during this transitional period of European warfare.
-
A companion dagger to the iconic Katzbalger sword, built with the same distinctive “S”-shaped quillon guard that marked out the equipment of the Landsknecht — the flamboyantly dressed, professionally organised German mercenary infantry who reshaped European warfare in the early 16th century.
-
The Landsknecht dagger was the standard secondary blade of the most feared mercenaries in 16th century Europe — worn alongside the Katzbalger and paired with a shield or off-hand weapon in single combat. This version is inspired by historical examples from Solingen, Germany — the centre of German blade-making — and serves as an ideal companion piece to a Katzbalger in a complete Landsknecht kit.
-
Landsknecht Katzbalger with Cutlery Set
SKU: AH2213The complete Landsknecht sidearm package — a Katzbalger with its characteristic S-shaped guard, paired with a pick and knife that would have been worn alongside it in the scabbard as part of the mercenary’s personal kit. Surviving examples of Katzbalger scabbards frequently feature attached cutlery, confirming this as an authentic feature of Landsknecht equipment rather than a modern addition.
-
A robust, five-fullered interpretation of the Katzbalger — the compact, brutal sidearm of the Landsknecht mercenaries who dominated European warfare in the 16th century. Built for the push-of-pike melee where longer blades became dangerously impractical, the Katzbalger’s S-shaped guard and short, stiff blade made it the ideal last-resort weapon for the most dangerous men on the battlefield.
-
A historically grounded interpretation of the Katzbalger drawn from period German sources — its double-edged, lenticular-section blade with S-shaped S-guard are faithful to the documented descriptions of original examples from around 1530. The distinctive fish-tail pommel and twisted guard arms ending in rounded tips reflect the variations in design that existed across Katzbalger examples of the period.
-
The Katzbalger was the defining sidearm of the Landsknecht mercenaries — the feared German foot soldiers who dominated the battlefields of 16th century Europe. Short, broad, and robust, it was designed specifically for the brutal close-quarters combat of a pike push, where longer swords became dangerously unwieldy. This version is based on an original in the Solingen Klingenmuseum, dated to c.1530–1550 — one of the finest surviving examples of the type.
-
The Scottish dirk was the defining personal sidearm of the Highland warrior — carried into battle alongside the basket-hilted broadsword and targe, sworn upon as the most sacred of oaths, and worn as part of Highland dress for centuries. This officer’s version, dating to the period between the Jacobite risings of 1715 and 1745, represents the dirk at the height of its martial significance — a blade carried by men who fought for Bonnie Prince Charlie at Culloden and who were subsequently forbidden from bearing it by the Act of Proscription of 1746.
-
The lobster-tail pot helmet, named for its articulated, segmented neck guard resembling a lobster's tail, was the signature cavalry helmet of the English Civil War (1642-1651). Its open face, typically fitted with a sliding nasal bar rather than a full visor, balanced protection with the visibility a mounted trooper needed. This helmet type is closely associated with both Royalist and Parliamentarian cavalry throughout the conflict that reshaped 17th century Britain.
-
Henry VIII-Style Close Helmet
SKU: XH001This close helmet draws on the armour style associated with King Henry VIII of England, whose reign (1509-1547) saw some of the most lavish royal armour commissions in English history. Henry VIII maintained royal workshops at Greenwich specifically to produce elaborate parade and field armour, some surviving pieces now held in the Royal Armouries and Tower of London. This close helmet form reflects the fully enclosing, fully articulated Renaissance helmet style favoured by the English court during his reign.
-
The parrying dagger was the essential off-hand companion to the rapier in Renaissance Europe — held in the left hand to deflect and trap an opponent’s blade while the right hand thrust. The Landsknecht warriors of the Holy Roman Empire were among its most celebrated users: German mercenary foot soldiers renowned for their flamboyant dress and their skill with the Katzbalger and the parrying dagger. This version is based on an early 16th century original in the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
-
Pocahontas Goddess Bronze-Hilt Dagger
SKU: AH2020Inspired by the indigenous artistic traditions of North America and the legendary figure of Pocahontas, this decorative dagger features a dual goddess bronze hilt and EN45 steel blade. A fantasy-inspired collectible piece that bridges Native American iconography and decorative blade artistry — designed for display and collection rather than historical re-enactment.
-
16th Century German Bullock Dagger
SKU: AH2015The bullock dagger — also known as the bollock or kidney dagger — was one of the most widespread civilian blades of late medieval and Renaissance Europe. In daily use from the 14th through the 16th century across England, Scotland, Flanders and Germany, it was the personal sidearm of everyone from merchants and travellers to soldiers and courtiers. Dozens of examples were found aboard the wreck of the Mary Rose, confirming its ubiquity in 16th century English life.
-
The cutlass was the defining sidearm of the Golden Age of Piracy — a short, curved, single-edged blade designed for close-quarters fighting in the confined spaces of a ship’s deck. Carried by pirates, privateers and naval sailors alike from the late 17th through the 18th century, it was the practical working blade of the age of sail — built for chopping rather than fencing, and equally at home clearing rigging or repelling boarders.
-
A novelty champagne-opener finished in a dagger-inspired form — worth being upfront that this is a Novelty barware item, not a replica of any historical original.
-
Sword Hanger, Black Leather with Nickel Hardware
SKU: AH4453BKA sword hanger provides a dedicated, adjustable carrying loop for a scabbarded blade, typically worn attached to a waist belt rather than as a standalone belt itself.

Suited to a range of historical impressions calling for a hip-slung blade, from military to civilian dress.
-
Caribbean Pirate Dagger
SKU: AH4245A companion dagger in the tradition of the Golden Age of Piracy, when a personal blade was as essential a piece of a sailor's kit as any pistol or cutlass in the Caribbean's contested waters.

Pirate-Style Baldric Belt, Black Leather

-
Swept Hilt Basket Rapier, Compact

-

English Close Helmet, Deluxe Pattern
SKU: XH015/ AH4421The close helmet was the final major development of Renaissance head armour, worn by knights and soldiers mainly in the 16th and 17th centuries — worth correcting directly here, since older listing copy filed this piece under 'Medieval,' when it is genuinely a Renaissance form. It evolved directly from the armet, the final true Medieval helmet, as fully articulated, fully enclosing protection reached its most refined expression. This deluxe English pattern reflects a more richly finished example of the classic close helmet form.
-
Compact Swept Hilt Rapier
SKU: AH6989A shorter, more compact swept-hilt rapier — worth noting upfront that despite this model's old product name, the rapier is exclusively a Renaissance and Early Modern sword form, appearing no earlier than the late 15th century and reaching its height in the 16th and 17th; it has no genuine place in the Medieval period proper.
-
Swept Hilt Basket Rapier, Long

-
Swept Hilt Broad Blade Rapier
SKU: AH6985A swept-hilt rapier with a notably broad blade, built more for a balance of cut and thrust than the narrowest, purely thrust-focused rapier forms — and a reminder that the rapier's civilian dueling role reached well beyond Europe.
-
17th Century Pappenheimer Rapier
SKU: AH6984A Pappenheimer rapier carrying real royal history — a sword of this exact style was in the hand of Sweden’s King Gustavus II Adolphus when he fell at the Battle of Lützen in 1632, in a battle that, by grim coincidence, also claimed the life of the rapier’s namesake.
-
Scottish Cutlass
SKU: AH3232A Scottish cutlass with a full steel basket guard, blending the compact, close-quarters cutlass form with the protective basket-hilt tradition so closely associated with Highland swordsmanship.
