Sword Review - Angus Trim XVIa 5 warsword

#atrim #sword #medieval

In this video I review a XVIa.5 warsword made by Angus Trim. This is a relatively rare model by Mr. Trim, and it has a lot of features that are not very common in modern representations of XVIa swords - a wide blade, hexagonal cross section, and double fullers.

A post made by Mr. Trim in regards to designing his swords for historical performance, rather than cutting specifically: https://www.facebook.com/groups/72518...

I have learned that Mr. Trim mills and shapes the wood core grips he uses, and outsources the leatherwork.

Thanks for watching!
