Greek Hoplite Sword

"Hoplon" means "weapons, armour," and Hoplite is thus an armed citizen of ancient Greece, and over the centuries he formed the main group of the feared Greek armies. In addition to the large shield ("aspis"), his standard equipment included a lance with a steel tip and a sword with a steel blade - if the lance broke.

Our classic Hoplite sword is a historically correct replica of this widespread battlefield weapon: it has the pointed blade shape of the blade, the classic knob and a simple but effective guard pole made of steel. The handle is covered with leather, which is perfectly complemented by the supplied wooden sheath, which is also covered with leather and is covered with brass.
