Medieval Swords
The first test was on several 2"x 4"s standing up and split them with no marring on the blade. The second test was on a 2"x 4" cross ways resting on a solid rest and striking straight down. It did not cut all the way through, but it did cut deep and again did not mar the blade or edge. Then the ultimate test was Steel-to-Steel *, with 9 good blows. These tests resulted in NO breakage or looseness developing in the blade, tang, or handle of the swords.

I love medieval swords. My friend had a collection of fake ones that looked authentic. When I saw his collection I was hooked. I can't actually wield or fight one well but just looking at them is addicting.

Medieval Swords History & Civil Business Politics
I own a actual sword from at least the 17th century. I do not know for sure how old it is. I should get it dated. It is a family heirloom. It is a ceremony sword. One that a family member would wear to a ball or other social gathering.
