Irish Hand and a Half Sword

The Irish Hand and a Half (formerly IP-001) from Legacy Arms is a historically inspired medieval sword based on Irish forms dating to around 1475–1525 A.D. Its distinctive ring pommel, polished steel crossguard and long leather-wrapped grip give it a recognisable late medieval profile, making it a strong choice for collectors, display arrangements and historical interest collections. Built with full tang construction and a 34 3/4" blade in 5160 high-carbon spring steel, this sword is designed with a notably responsive feel for its overall 46" size. The blade measures 5mm thick at the guard and tapers to 3.3mm, with a point of balance at 3 1/2" from the guard. A leather-wrapped wooden scabbard with steel fittings is included, completing the presentation in a style consistent with the Legacy Arms range.
