The Celt-Iberians of Roman times were justly famed for their weapons, such as the Falcata - one of the most devastating swords ever made! The inward curving blade delivered a tremendous blow and could split both the shield and helmet. Considered to be of Greek, or possibly Etruscan origin, this sword spread into Southern Russia and also Spain. It was in Spanish hands that it was most feared by the Romans.
This Celt-Iberian Falcata sword features a blade made from 1065 high carbon steel. The handle is solid brass. Includes scabbard. Overall length of approx. 64.3 cm.
