ULTIMATE PEN ROSAR KRIEGMESSER MANUALS

The overall weight and balance are amazing and it feels great whenever you hold it. Even though this sword is for practice, it still does not fail to amaze me every time I pick it up. Overall a well made product and great designed.ĭarian Lane from Sioux Falls, SD United StatesĪlthough the shipping speed wasn't what I'm used to, it's something that's to be expected when such fine craftsmanship goes into making this sword. This is no fault of anyone, just a personal preference.

I would gladly give this sword a 5 star rating, but the blade came up a little shorter than I expected a kriegsmesser would be. It works as intended and feels very natural in the hands.Įthan McCarty from Hattiesburg, MS United States This was shipped with relative speed and arrived in good condition. Also know as a langesmesser.Ġ of 0 people found the following review helpful:ġ of 1 people found the following review helpful:

ULTIMATE PEN ROSAR KRIEGMESSER MANUALS

The Messer was part of the curriculum of several fencing manuals in the 14th and 15th centuries, including Lecküchner, Codex Wallerstein and Albrecht Dürer. Think of it as a German-sized Bowie knife, and you will not be too wrong.ĭuring the German Late Middle Ages and Renaissance (14th to 16th centuries), the Messer was a term for the class of single-edged bladed weapons, deriving from the medieval falchion and preceding the modern sabre. The Type III messer waster balance tends more towards the tip, as befits the heavy cutting blade of actual messer examples. Use of the messer is shown in several fencing manuals, including Lecküchner and the Codex Wallerstein. This features a metal pommel for balance, and a steel guard with a nagle for extra strength and protection.

The same quality material as our classic Pentti sword series. The Purpleheart Type III synthetic Kriegsmesser 'War Knife' recreates the German long knife used during the 14th to 16th centuries.
