BATLLE READY PIECES

These instruments are NOT toys, their use requires the training and supervision of a qualified Teacher or Trainer in sword use or fencing. Their use in ANY other form (i.e. chopping trees down in the backyard, etc. ;-) can result in severe injury to the user and to the instrument, and is not warranted by Imperial Weapons. If you are not qualified, DO NOT attempt to use these instruments before securing qualified instruction. Owning an instrument such as this carries with it a responsibility to gain the instruction needed to become proficient and qualified in its
use. Users should contact a qualified Trainer or Teacher or join a fencing club to receive proper training. The necessary training is NOT available via books or videos; and no, it is definitely not as easy as it looks. GRIFFONS CLAW ARMOURY, its employees, nor associated companies, assume no responsibility for injury, damage, or loss incurred by use of these instruments. All edged instruments can be dangerous when handled by ill-trained or non-trained personnel. We cannot stress too strongly that, without exception, the user of these instruments must
get the proper training to insure their own safety and the safety of others. THESE PIECES CANNOT BE PURCHASED WITH TALON'S

Note: (the following comments were made by the manufacturer)The blade is 3/16" high carbon spring steel with a full hefty tang. We tested it on several 2"x4" standing up and split them with no marring on the blade. We then tested it on a 2"x4" cross ways resting on each side on a solid rest and came straight down. It did not cut all the way through but it did cut deep and again did not mar the blade or edge. We then went to the ultimate test Steel-to-SteelSM. We did 9 good blows, it nicked the blade but did not break the blade not break the tang or handle in either of these test.

The Pommel and cross-guard are made from solid brass. The handle is made of hard-wood and wrapped in black nylon cord (to represent black cotton cord) so as not to stretch from long term handling.

Note the quillions: Unlike the Scottish Claymore where the clovers extend at the same angle of the down-turn quillions, on the Irish Claymore the clovers turn almost straight.

The blade features a round tip as with most huge swords from that time period, since they were for hacking instead of stabbing.
The long wide fuller starts about 9" below the hilt and runs for some 30" towards the tip.
