TH 08 – Zweihänder
From: € 825,00 (Exc. VAT)
The epitome of the Landsknecht era – introducing our take on the legendary “Zweihänder.”
Inspired by the grand Beidhänders of the XV-XVII century, this two-handed sword embodies the spirit of the famed Landsknecht mercenaries — warriors who wielded these massive blades with precision and power.
Its straight, imposing blade delivers devastating cuts, while the hand-forged, richly ornamented crossguard reflects the craftsmanship of the era. The riveted leather grip ensures durability and control, making it a weapon as commanding in appearance as it is in battle.
A true tribute to the golden age of mercenary swordsmen.
