Windlass
Swords are forged from high
quality, high carbon spring steel,
tempered with the latest, most
technologically advanced heat treating
process available (the tempering and
flex of these swords is amazing). These
authentic sword replicas are made as
well as or better than the originals.
They look, feel, flex, and balance like
the originals. All of these swords will
stand up to swordplay, both stage combat
and reenactments.
Windlass Steelcraft swords do not come
with a sharp edge, though with a one
millimeter edge they can easily be
sharpened. Known for their flex and
lightness Windlass Swords are ideal for
the practitioner looking for a sword
that lends itself to easy sword play and
quick movements.
Quote from Hank Reinhardt Windlass
Steelcrafts:
"We swim against the tide and only off
swords that are just as functional as
the originals. Our customers appreciate
knowing that our swords look like the
originals, feel like the originals, flex
and balance like the originals, and
finally, can actually cut like the
originals. You get a strong sense of awe
and respect for the power for these
weapons that the cosmetic 'wall hanger'
swords sold by our competitors do not
generate."
Hank's
Flex test - This time he decided to
bend it more than usual. The point
was placed against a tree, and he
leaned hard on it, bending the blade
at least 12" out of line. His
comment was, "it would go further,
but it's too fine a sword to think
of ruining it just for a test."
Chainmail Cut - This Windlass
sword was sharpened for the test cut of chainmail. How much protection did
chainmail really provide? Apparently
not as much as one would think against a
good sword!
