What a strange sword, isn't it? The fancy, unique style certainly matched the outlandish, flamboyant attire worn by German Landsknecht mercenaries to show off their status as the Gigachads of the Renaissance battlefields.

So let's take a closer look at this stubby, double-edged chopping weapon, with its historical background, design features, handling characteristics, and other interesting aspects. Including, of course, practical cutting tests of this particular reproduction made by Arms & Armor, which you can find here:
