This new economy line of well-designed historical medieval and renaissance swords and daggers. In an effort to supply very good quality at low prices with today’s high import costs this line will all be unsharpened but will still include a high-quality scabbard. The pieces are from high carbon C60 carbon steel, from a quality foundry in India, and are well tempered and can be sharpened at home by hand if so desired. To sharpen start with a fine mill-bastard file and at about 25 degrees pass from the base of the blade to the tip in even strokes going from one edge to the next. After the edge is stated use a medium stone and then if you desire a fine stone passing it up the edge in the same fashion as the file. Look for more designs coming soon!

Hand Sharpening Instructions.

To keep costs down as low as possible with the Man of Arms Collection we are offering the arms unsharpened only. However, the well-tempered high carbon steel blade can be sharpened by hand with a little effort.

Simple start with a Fine Mill Bastard File and stroke at about 24 degrees along the edge from the base of the blade evenly to the tip.

After this has begun to take an edge go to a medium sharpening stone and then a fine stone used in the same fashion as the file.
