Collection: Historical Replica Swords | Hand-Forged 5160 Steel | Kingdom of Arms

Brookhart Line of collectible medieval swords from Kingdom of Arms.

Hello my name is Bruce Allen Brookhart and I have actively been researching edged weapons for the last 50 years. During that period I worked with Hank Reinhardt for over 17 years and consulted with Ewart Oakeshott for about 10 years until shortly before his passing. I am proud to be able to say that these two late, great gentlemen where my friends and I have gleaned, I felt, a lot of knowledge about the subject from this association and my own research. For the past 30 years I have made literally hundreds of proto types of edged weapons both exact replicas of museum pieces and pieces from private collections along with my own Fantasy designs. The weapons in this collection are all my own designs that are heavily related to weapons that where used in history but are all “of a type know” and not per say replicas of any certain weapon.

Cheers,
Bruce A. Brookhart
