Meyer Sidesword
From: € 285,00 (Exc. VAT)
Precision & Presence – The Meyer sidesword builds on the elegance of the Firenze, adding a distinctive schilt and German flair for those who favor structured fencing styles.
With the same slender, agile blade as the Firenze, the Meyer offers speed, control, and finesse—now enhanced by a schilt for added protection and bind control.
Balanced and responsive, it’s ideal for Meyer-based systems, interpretive work, and sparring where mechanical leverage and timing are key.
A modern tribute to 16th-century German swordsmanship, crafted for today’s dedicated practitioner.
