LS 07 – Talhoffer

From:  475,00 (Exc. VAT)

Simple, elegant, and agile – introducing our iconic Type XVa longsword, “Talhoffer.”

Inspired by authentic XIV-XV century museum pieces, Talhoffer is crafted for the precise and dynamic techniques of early German longsword traditions. Its design embodies the spirit of Johannes Lichtenauer’s era, faithfully reflected in historical sources such as the Peter von Danzig manuscript and the Talhoffer fencing books.

Balanced in size and handling, Talhoffer is a refined yet formidable weapon — ideal for both practice and performance.

– Designed by Zoltán Berkes.
