Custom D-Guard Scimitar Sword

Yes. This is a real, fully functional curved scimitar, not a cast wall-hanger. It is hand-forged from 5160 high-carbon spring steel, given a full tang, oil-tempered, and sharpened to a true cutting edge before it ships. It is built to be handled and cut with, and finished cleanly enough to display.

Yes, it has a full hand guard. A D-guard scimitar carries a D-shaped steel knuckle bow that loops from the guard to the pommel and encloses the hand. On this sword the D-guard is forged steel, not a cast ornament, so it offers genuine protection during a cut. It is the natural choice if you want a curved scimitar with a hand guard.

It has a deep, sweeping single-edged curve in the classic scimitar profile, balanced toward a fast draw cut. The curve is more pronounced than a light European saber bend, which gives it the dramatic curved-scimitar silhouette while the D-guard keeps the hand protected.

Yes. The standard blade is 24 inches, and you can order it from a compact 18 inches up to a long 32 inches. You can also choose the blade finish, handle material, scabbard colour, and add engraving. Every sword is forged to the spec you select.

The standard blade is 24 inches with a total length of about 30 inches including the handle. Shorter and longer blade options are available, from 18 up to 32 inches, which changes the total length accordingly.

The blade is forged from 5160 high-carbon spring steel, the same alloy used in heavy-duty truck leaf springs, prized for toughness and edge retention. It is oil-tempered for a hard cutting edge backed by a flexible, shock-absorbent spine.

It is a modern, custom-built scimitar rather than a fixed historical pattern. It takes the deep curve of the classic scimitar and pairs it with a modern steel D-guard and made-to-order options, so you get a functional curved sword built to your own spec rather than a museum reproduction.

The standard handle is 6-inch rosewood, and you can choose white-wood, buffalo horn, or bone instead. The fitted leather scabbard comes in six colours: black, brown, yellow, red, green, or blue. Every handle is fitted by hand for a secure grip.

Yes. You can add a name, initials, or a short message to the blade, and you can upload your own logo or photo for custom engraving. Personalized blades are forged to order, so please confirm the details before you buy.

Yes. Every blade is sharpened to a true cutting edge before it leaves the forge unless you request otherwise. It arrives ready to handle, cut, or display.
