German Arming Sword

15th C German Oakeshott Collection Catalogue Number: OC007 An excellent example of a type XVIII blade, this weapon would have provided a perfect compromise between effectiveness against armored and unarmored opponents. This piece is particularly notable for the still intact original grip, composed of leather over wood. Originally part of the armory at Schloss Erbach, this weapon now resides in the Oakeshott collection.
