The sword with a rib grip has the hilt covered with braided wire and a tight leather wrap is usually added on top of the wire to mark the internal stringing. The rib-cutting sword served as both a long dagger and a short sword, making it popular among knights of any rank and social class. Suitable to carry like a dagger, but with the cutting power of a short sword.
This rib cutting sword was designed with an “all-in-one” weapon in mind. The well-tempered blade is light and very fast with the cutting power of a short sword. It could pass as a dagger in towns where only nobles could openly carry a sword, becoming a favorite for doing good. It was long enough to use for defense, but also for thrust. Easy to carry on your riding belt.
Steel knob and guard with a leather-covered wooden grip. Includes sheath.
