SHOP CASE KNIVESBuilt for those who appreciate old-world craftsmanship and striking detail, the Szco Damascus Short Sword delivers a bold presence and rugged reliability. Measuring 22 inches overall, with a 15-inch upswept blade, this short sword is compact enough for display or carry, yet long enough to serve as a functional utility or costume piece. Whether on a wall, at your side, or in-hand, it commands attention with every detail. At the heart of the design is a forged Damascus steel blade, offering a visually stunning pattern of layered steel that speaks to its craftsmanship. The upswept edge design combines traditional sword aesthetics with an aggressive profile that performs well in slicing motions. Though it's made with collectors in mind, the blade holds an edge well and has a solid spine that lends strength to the overall design. The handle is a full-tang construction, which means the steel of the blade runs all the way through to the end of the grip. This ensures structural integrity and a better sense of control during use. The handle scales are made from smooth walnut wood and natural bone, providing a mix of tones and textures that enhance the sword’s rustic character. Brass pins secure the materials in place while adding a subtle contrast to the handle's natural palette.
Carrying and storage are made easy with the included brown leather sheath, complete with belt loop functionality. The sheath is durable enough for casual outdoor wear or event use while protecting the blade when not in action. It also offers a traditional aesthetic that pairs well with the overall styling of the short sword. Crafted in Pakistan, this piece reflects the country’s long-standing tradition in hand-forged blade manufacturing. Whether you're a collector, enthusiast, reenactor, or simply someone who appreciates craftsmanship and functional design, the Szco Damascus Short Sword is a piece worth wielding—or displaying.
