Cold Steel Man At Arms La Fontaine Sword of War

Designed by noted historical sword practitioner Luke LaFontaine and bearing his name, the Man At Arms La Fontaine Sword of War is presented as a collectible piece for historical display. Rather than being carried on a belt or baldric, this large historical design was traditionally held in hand, rested on the shoulder, or carried by an attendant or page. It was almost as big as a Zweihander or a Great Sword, with a long double-edged blade, elaborate ring guards, counter guards and peaked quillons, a closed ricasso for looping a finger through the cross for added control, and a heavy counter-balancing pommel. Made in Cold Steel's signature "Man at Arms" style, the LaFontaine Sword of War features a 1055 carbon steel blade that has been deeply blued to an inky black sheen. The LaFontaine Sword is fully sharpened and supplied complete with a thick leather and steel scabbard.
