  Scottish Broadsword

  $416.14 $332.91 Add to Bag

  Based on the traditional weapon of the highland clansman that has sown fear into the hearts of Englishmen for centuries, the Scottish Broadsword has a long, two-edged blade and a distinctive basket hilt wrapped in blued steel wire.

Offering greater protection to the hand with their basket-shaped guards, basket hilt broadswords served as military weapons in the 16th through 18th centuries, contrasting with the slim dueling rapiers worn by civilians during the same time period. Various forms of this Renaissance sword are known as basket hilt backswords, schiavona swords, and Scottish broadswords. While the terms broadsword and backsword did not appear until the Victorian era, they are used in present day to distinguish between double-edged and single-edged basket hilted swords, respectively. At Buying a Sword, we provide an excellent selection of historical sword replicas, including a fine assortment of basket hilted broadswords. These Renaissance broadswords are available in functional and decorative sword designs, making them ideal for historical reenactors and weapon collectors.
