AS 07 – Bellator
From: € 300,00 (Exc. VAT)
Long, powerful, and authoritative – introducing the “Bellator”
The Bellator is a classic one-handed sword inspired by the cutting weapons of the early Middle Ages. Its blade follows the Oakeshott Type XIa form, with a long, broad profile, gentle taper, and full-length fuller, optimized for strong, flowing cuts from horseback or on foot.
Designed for reach and cutting authority, the Type XIa blade delivers wide, decisive blows while remaining lively and controllable. Its long blade and elastic structure provide excellent edge alignment and smooth recovery, making it highly effective in shield-supported fighting and early medieval combat.
Clean in form and purposeful in design, the Bellator reflects the martial elegance of the Norman and early knightly traditions. Powerful yet agile, it is an excellent choice for practitioners and collectors seeking an early medieval arming sword with commanding reach, strong cutting performance, and authentic character.
