Description of the Product

During the 1800's saber was still an important weapon and almost all European armies had own style of combat, fencing guides and teachers to train soldiers in the secrets of swordsmanship. Classical Italian saber fencing is still taught nowadays and it is indeed part of our living history, and the founder of this tradition is considered to be Radaelli. Salvatore Pecoraro was a student of Radaelli, wrote his own fencing manual, made changes and refinements to the style which resulted in the technique finally used at the famous Military Masters School, Scuola Magistrale Militare, in Rome where Pecoraro was teaching.

Although sabers used in war are slightly heavier, Radaelli as well as Pecoraro taught techniques also with lighter weapons like this one. Using a lighter sword soldiers were able to train longer and hits didn’t hurt as much. Using a lighter sword soldiers were able to use power and cut correctly while retaining safely. This sword has approximately the same weight as the original 1800’s training sabers (650-700g).

While Pecoraro emphasized thrusts, strong cuts starting from elbow were also part of his system. Sabers made for military during the 1800’s were practically all-rounders cut-and-thrust swords, which both thrusted and cut efficiently. The sabers had enough mass and heft so that soldiers dared to trust their lives on the sword, either as a last defense on the battlefield or when making a cavalry charge to enemy's flank. Saber was primarily a weapon for cavalry during the 1800’s as they could make a rapid charge to close range. Slower infantry of course continued to carry melee weapons, but guns were the main weapon for infantry.

This sword is made in a classic Pecoraro-style with a punctured cup as a hand protection. The blade is made of high carbon steel and is very flexible. The tip of the blade has a rounded button for safe thrusts. The cup protecting your hand and other metal parts of the hilt are made of stainless steel. The end of the tang is threaded and the hilt is fastened with a nut. This allows the hilt to be easily re-tightened or dismantled for inspection, customization and to exchange the blade if needed. Although this saber has been made to be a functional training tool for today's fencers at the same time it’s a fine copy of the original training sabers of the 1800’s.

Tilasin keskiaikaisen hupun. 100% puuvillaa, joten voi käsitellä kosteussuoja-aineella. Vaivatonta kaupankäyntiä.

Sain kaksi muistikirjaa ja kalligrafiasetin setin 25-vuotis lahjaksi rakkaaltani. Ne ovat upeita! Olen saanut valtavasti kyselyitä muistikirjan alkuperästä ja kehunut Rautaporttia laadukkaasta käsityöstä. Tuotteista huokuu estetiikka, laatu ja taianomaisuus. Täydellinen lahja historia-/fantasianörtille!

Siis aivan huikea!! Tilasin pari tuotetta aamupäivällä, ja 24h myöhemmin ne olivat jo noudettavissa postin automaatista! Kaikki sujui kuin rasvattu, ei ole mitään moitittavaa. Vaatteet olivat juuri sitä mitä tilasin, ja koot pitävät kyllä todella hyvin paikkansa! 😍 Aion ehdottomasti tilata vielä uudestaan, ja ehdottomasti suosittelen kaikille!
