Cathars Sword Letter Opener

The Cathars—condemned as diabolical heretics by the Roman church—are often hailed as a manifestation of a separate, ‘primitive’ brand of Christianity. If you travel to towns like Toulouse, Albi, and Carcassonne today, you’ll see signs proclaiming the Pays Cathare, ‘Cathar country’ with prominent displays of the gold-and-red Cathar cross, which is misleading since they didn’t worship the cross.

This Cathars letter opener is a fine miniature of the larger sword produced by Art Gladius. The blade is made of stainless steel and in much detail as its larger counterpart. The Art Gladius Cathars letter opener is a perfect accent for the home or office.
