CELTIC WARRIOR SWORD (SH2370) by CAS HANWEI
This truly inspiring sword comes to us from the age of heroes. The anthropomorphic hilt and 23 1/2" inch leaf shaped blade are similar to the swords that would have been used by Gaelic heroes like Cuchulain or Conn of the Hundred Battles. Hand hammer forged in high-carbon steel, this fearsome piece is full tang and made for combat. This battle ready sword has an overall Length, 30.25". Blade comes factory pre-sharpened and can be finely re-sharpened as needed. (Leather Scabbard Included)

BATTLE READY: Hand forged from tough high-carbon steel by the finest craftsmen, this sword is built for use. The guard and pommel are crafted from solid steel (unlike many other manufacturers who cast their fittings using a brittle zinc alloy). From the beautiful exotic hardwood handle to the expertly tempered blade, this sword is more than just a wall hanger!

THE CELTIC WARRIORS
The Celts tore through the countryside and several battalions of Roman soldiers to lay siege to the Capitol of the Roman Empire. Seven months of siege led to negotiations whereby the Celts promised to leave their siege for a tribute of one thousand pounds of gold, which the historian Pliny tells was very difficult for the entire city to muster. When the gold was being weighed, the Romans claimed the Celts were cheating with faulty weights. It was then that the Celts' leader, Brennus, threw his sword into the balance and and uttered the words vae victis "woe to the Defeated". Rome never withstood another more humiliating defeat and the Celts made an initial step of magnificent proportions into history.
