Single handed sword

The Gothic one-handed sword is a weapon that appeared in Europe during the High and Late Middle Ages, approximately from the 14th to the 15th century. This type of sword was designed with an emphasis on balancing elegance and functionality. Gothic swords were characterized by their slender blade and intricately crafted guard, which provided both an aesthetic impression and protection for the warrior's hand.

These swords were particularly popular among nobility and knights, who used them not only in combat but also as a symbol of their social prestige. The sharp, often tempered blade was ideal for both slashing and thrusting attacks, aligning with the evolving military tactics of the time. Gothic one-handed swords were also adapted for use with a shield, offering greater flexibility and efficiency in battle.

Thanks to their decorative elements and elaborate design, these swords were often crafted as ceremonial weapons or representative artifacts. Some featured engravings, gemstones, or other ornamental details, serving as expressions of their owner's wealth and power.
