- The Swiss and Germans originally carried these weapons, although Bastard swords soon became popular in other regions such as the British Isles and Europe.
- The term Bastard undoubtedly comes from the fact that the sword, because of its design, has no legitimate claim to being classified as either a uniquely single-handed or two-handed weapon.
- The Bastard sword was a weapon developed for the use of the foot soldier and had became quite common by the early 1500's.
- The combat styles developed for the Bastard sword were the particular specialty of the Northern European cultures, with the Germanic nations being at the forefront in its development and use.
- Our Bastard Sword is finished in an antique patina, making for an outstandingly authentic appearance.
- The included scabbard features metal chape and tip in the same patina and a solid wood core.
