Model of the famous Munich sword made for town guards around 1600 A.D. It's quite interesting that quite a few of them were perserved to this day. They have roughly 85cm blades with beautiful complex hilt guards that feature knuckle bowls, finger rings, small & big open ports, essentially a swept hilt that's very popular for rapiers. The blade is quite wide for a sword of the era can be considered a popular form in the late Medieval period. The sword handles much like an English baskethilt broadsword of the era with most of the mass close to the hand. It weighs around 1300g with the point of balance of only 5cm! It should feel very numble in the hand with the cost of shoulder fatigue. ![town guard sword](http://i747.photobucket.com/albums/xx115/kelly1863/German%2016th%20Century%20Swords/GermanCutnThrustSwords007.jpg)
