Scimitar Swords – Hand-Forged Curved Blades
Step into the legacy of curved blades with our handcrafted Scimitar swords, forged in Nepal by the skilled blacksmiths of Everest Forge. Each sword is a tribute to centuries of warrior tradition—fully functional, battle-ready, and rooted in history. Known for their sweeping curves and slashing power, scimitars have long been revered for their performance in mounted combat and close-quarter battles.
A Blade Shaped by History
The Scimitar is not a single sword but a family of curved blades with origins across the Middle East, Central Asia, North Africa, and the Indian subcontinent. First seen in the 9th century, these blades were favored by Turkic, Persian, Arab, and Mughal cavalry warriors for their agility and efficiency in slicing strikes from horseback. The Western term "Scimitar" encompasses legendary designs like the Persian Shamshir, Turkish Kilij, Arabian Saif, and Indian Talwar.
These swords weren't just weapons—they were symbols of rank, status, and honor. Often richly adorned, they appeared in royal courts, religious iconography, and military parades, transcending their role on the battlefield. Their design has influenced blades across Asia, Eastern Europe, and even modern fantasy culture.
