The Svante .... $3930
This sword is offered in a limited edition of 1,000 swords worldwide.
Only a limited number of these swords can be made in the course of a year. Swords will be shipped as they are completed, in the order in which they are reserved.
The blade is 1075 steel, hand-ground and finished to a high satin finish. The broad edges are deeply hollow-ground. Each blade is individually heat treated by hand for maximum flexibility and cutting performance.
The wooden core of the grip is bound with cord and covered with leather, with a hand-made tooled leather chappe (rainguard).
The "S" shaped cross with its gently flaring ends and the fluted pommel are both investment cast from waxes hand-carved by Peter Johnsson, and hand-finished and mounted to fit the individual blade.
