The basket hilted broadsword was well known weapon throughout Europe from the 1500's onwards. it was a logical development in the direction of hand protection.
Oliver Cromwell (1599 – 1658) was a powerful figure in English history during and after the English Civil War, when he rose from the rank of Captain of Horse to Lord Protector of England. His sword, said to have been carried at the battle of Drogheda in 1649, has been remarkably well preserved and features in the collection of the Royal Armouries in Leeds, England, where it is displayed in the permanent collection. This is a beautifully made, historically accurate, hand forged short, made from EN45 spring steel from one of UKs leading weaponry designers and forgers. This sword comes with a semi sharpened edge. Made with a full tang that is peened riveted over the pommel.
