Swiss/German Degen – 15th to 16th Century Hand-Forged Medieval Sword | 24-Inch Blade
This Swiss/German Degen Sword is a historically inspired hand-forged weapon rooted in late medieval European martial tradition. Commonly used by Swiss and German infantry and noblemen during the 15th and 16th centuries, the Degen was favored for its light weight and thrusting capability, ideal for both close-quarters combat and civilian self-defense.
Our 24-inch blade is forged from high-quality 5160 spring steel, sourced from reclaimed truck leaf springs, renowned for toughness and elasticity. The blade is hand-hammered, heat-treated, water-tempered, and sharpened by skilled blacksmiths in Nepal using traditional forging methods. The 6.5-inch rosewood handle provides a sturdy, ergonomic grip.
Perfect for historical reenactments, HEMA practitioners, stage performers, or collectors of European arms, this sword blends craftsmanship, history, and functionality. A leather-covered wooden scabbard is included for protection and storage.
