Tinker Early Medieval Sword – Sharpened

Description Michael ‘Tinker’ Pearce has designed a series of swords manufactured by Hanwei in 5160 steel that emphasize authenticity, functionality and performance. To meet the combat and cutting needs of Western martial artists, each of the 7 styles is manufactured in both live (sharp) and combat (blunt) versions and each sword has outstanding handling characteristics. Carefully controlled heat treatment of 5160 steel (Tinker’s blade steel of choice) using the tempered produces an excellent combination of toughness and flexibility with a hardness of HRC 50-52, which allows for superior edge retention on cutting edges, anti-burrs and tip. Replacement blades are available for all swords in the series; a key feature of Tinker’s designs is the interchangeability of the blades within each pair of swords with the exception of the Viking, allowing the user to purchase a full sword and a replacement blade to enjoy both versions. Long swords, bastard swords and early medieval swords feature Tinker’s recessed sleeve nut mounting system, which provides secure hilt retention, adjustment and easy blade change with the Allen wrench provided. Early medieval swords (Oakeshott type X11) are designed so that the sharp and blunt versions function identically. The sharp blade is filled to about two-thirds of its length, with a flattened diamond section to the tip. The blunt blade features a wider, flatter blade to move the dough to the edges for safety while retaining a lively feel. The cruciform handle is attractive and functional. A leather-covered sheath is included.
