Hispanic Falcata (Kopis)
The Greeks or Etruscans were probably the first to use a falcata, but they were also popular with the tribes that lived on the Iberian peninsula. The unusual shape of our Hispanic falcata makes it ideal for delivering serious cuts, which is why the Romans feared the weapon. The single-edged blade is curved inward, has two fullers that meet in the middle and echo the shape of the blade, and a wide back. The engraving on the distinctive grip depicts a primitive bird of prey. This falcata includes a scabbard.

Historical Excalibur
If King Arthur actually existed many historians place him as a war leader seeking to halt the invasion of the Saxons after the fall of Rome. There are many indications that England did, after a time of much strife, have a brief period of peace and prosperity in what is now called the "Dark Ages". This sword is of a type that was widely in use during this period and would be what a hard-fighting warrior would prefer. Nicely balanced, well-tempered high carbon steel blade offset with antiqued brass parts.
