Cas Iberia Renaissance Side Sword SM22030

The Cas Iberia Renaissance Side Sword is built for enthusiasts who appreciate historical design paired with solid, functional construction. Inspired by an original German side sword, this piece captures the balance and presence that made these weapons a staple of the Renaissance period. It’s designed to feel alive in the hand, offering the kind of control and authority expected from a true sidearm of its era.

The blade is forged from high carbon 5160 steel, a tough, resilient material well known for its durability and ability to withstand stress. Measuring 33 inches in length, the blade offers a strong profile with enough reach for effective thrusting and cutting techniques. Thickness tapers from 5.5mm at the guard to 2.5mm near the tip, giving the sword both strength and responsiveness. This distal taper helps maintain balance while allowing the blade to move smoothly through cuts. With a point of balance at 3.5 inches from the guard, the sword feels controlled and agile, making it suitable for practice, study, or display.

At 40 inches overall and weighing 2 pounds 6 ounces, this side sword sits comfortably in the hand without feeling unwieldy. The proportions reflect historical examples, offering a practical balance between speed and authority. The handle measures 5.5 inches and is wrapped in leather, providing a secure grip with a traditional look and feel. The leather covering improves control while reinforcing the period-correct appearance that collectors and historical enthusiasts value.

Included with the sword is a leather-covered scabbard that protects the blade and completes the presentation. The scabbard makes storage and transport safer while adding to the overall authenticity of the piece. It’s designed to complement the sword rather than distract from it, keeping the focus on clean lines and classic styling.

Whether it’s intended for historical study, reenactment, or as a display piece, the Cas Iberia Renaissance Side Sword delivers dependable construction with timeless design. It reflects a respect for historical form while offering modern materials and manufacturing consistency. Made in China, this sword provides accessible craftsmanship for those who want a well-balanced side sword without sacrificing presence or performance. It’s a solid choice for anyone looking to add a Renaissance-era blade to their collection that feels purposeful and well built.
