HAND AND A HALF LETTER OPENER
The Hand-and-a-Half Sword, so-called because it could be used a either a single-handed or two-handed weapon, provided powerful versatility for the knights of the 14th and 15th centuries. Classically simple in design, the sword is featured in many European illustrations and stone carvings of the period. Crafted in steel with a distinctive antiqued patina, wach piece is a small version of one of our full-sized swords. Each piece is provided with its own stand and is packaged with a card detiling its origins. This letter opener is part of a series of six historical designs that are replicated from swords in museum collections.
