Most replica swords look like props. The Iron Oath Handmade Medieval Longsword does not. This is a full 36–39 inch hand-forged carbon steel longsword built with the details that serious collectors and history enthusiasts actually wan a high-polish blade, Celtic knotwork engraved cross-guard, long leather-wrapped grip, and a classic wheel pommel.
The blade is forged from carbon steel and finished to a bright high polish. A center fuller groove runs the length of the blade historically used to reduce weight while keeping blade strength. The result is a blade that looks and feels like a genuine medieval knight's sword.
The wide cross-guard is engraved with detailed Celtic and Norse knotwork patterns on both arms a design motif used on real medieval swords of the 12th–15th centuries. The natural tan leather-wrapped grip is long enough for a two-hand hold, and the round wheel pommel balances the blade perfectly for display or handling.

HISTORY OF THE MEDIEVAL LONGSWORD
The longsword emerged as the dominant sword design in medieval Europe between the 13th and 17th centuries. Unlike earlier single-hand swords, the longsword featured a longer grip that allowed both one-hand and two-hand use — earning it the alternative name "bastard sword" because it sat between a one-handed sword and a full two-handed great sword.
Knights and men-at-arms across England, France, Germany, and the Holy Roman Empire carried longswords as their primary blades. The Oakeshott typology a classification system developed by historian Ewart Oakeshott catalogued over 13 distinct longsword types based on blade shape, cross-guard style, and pommel design. The Iron Oath is inspired by the Type XVa profile: a long, slender, high-polish blade built for reach and precision.
Celtic and Norse knotwork on sword cross-guards was common among medieval smiths in Britain, Ireland, and Scandinavia. These engravings carried symbolic meaning — representing eternity, strength, and the interconnectedness of fate. Today, swords with this design are among the most sought-after by collectors of medieval historical replicas.

- Wipe blade clean and dry after each handling
- Apply light blade oil to carbon steel to prevent rust
- Polish cross-guard with a soft cloth to maintain finish

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is a medieval longsword?
A medieval longsword is a straight, double-edged sword with a grip long enough for one or two hands. It was the primary sword of European knights and soldiers from the 13th to 17th centuries. The Iron Oath Medieval Longsword is a historically inspired replica of this classic design hand-forged carbon steel, Celtic engraved cross-guard, and a full 36–39 inch length.
Why is the longsword also called a bastard sword?
The term "bastard sword" comes from the sword's in-between size longer than a standard one-handed sword but shorter than a full two-handed great sword. It could be used comfortably with one or two hands, making it versatile on the battlefield. The Iron Oath features a long two-hand grip that reflects this classic bastard sword proportion.
How heavy is a real medieval longsword?
Most historical medieval longswords weighed between 2.5 and 4 pounds (1.1–1.8 kg). Despite their size, they were designed to be fast and well-balanced. The Iron Oath Medieval Longsword, with its 36–39 inch carbon steel blade and wheel pommel, is built with proper proportions that give it a balanced feel for display and handling.
What does the Celtic engraving on the cross-guard mean?
Celtic and Norse knotwork engravings were commonly used on medieval swords across Britain, Ireland, and Scandinavia. The interlocking patterns symbolized eternity, strength, and fate. Swords featuring this engraving style are historically accurate to the medieval period and are among the most popular designs with collectors of historical replica swords.
Is the Iron Oath Medieval Longsword good for display?
Yes. The high-polish carbon steel blade, ornate engraved cross-guard, and full 36–39 inch length make this one of the most visually impressive display swords available. It looks outstanding on a wall mount, display stand, or in a glass cabinet. It is also a popular gifting choice for history enthusiasts, collectors, and Renaissance fair fans.

Favorite Socks Ever
Size: Medium, Color: Black/Assorted, Size: Medium, Color: Black/Assorted
I absolutely love these socks, they compress in the middle which is my favorite thing about them! Keeps them from slipping off my feet and also adds support, love love love how they feel and how long they last! This is my second pack that I’ve purchased, I had the multi colored ones before and they’ve lasted me two years before finally starting to wear out and fade and get holes. Definitely going to be routinely buying these every year. Good to wear with my work out shoes...winter boots, Nike sandals, and my everyday adidas sneakers. These are so worth it!

Great ankle socks that stay put at a great price!!
Size: 6-9, Color: Assorted
These are great! I have been looking for a low profile ankle sock that is thinner but doesn’t ride down. (Picky, right?) I try to walk 5-7 miles on my days off. So it’s very important for me to not have to stop every couple of hundred yards, bend down, fix socks, then continue on my way while grumbling about NOT GREAT socks. These are not those socks. They really do stay put!!! And enough cushion to be comfortable also. So definitely a repeat!!

Great quality, no holes or fading!
Size: Medium, Color: Black/Assorted
I purchased these socks a couple years ago and love them so much that I just recently purchased them again! They fit perfectly, don't make my feet sweaty, and hit the ankle at the right spot. The material is so good that over years they have not faded and even though I wear the same few pairs every day, they have no signs of thinning or holes! These are the ONLY socks that I buy. I have the black ones as well as the multi-colored ones. I will never buy another brand or style again!
