On occasion of a research excursion to the collection centre of the Swiss National Museum, Arthur von Eschen and myself had the opportunity to examine a number of original medieval artifacts, one of which was a 13th/14th century sword, featured in this video. It is an Oakeshott type XIV with a small brass disc pommel with chamfered edges and an extremely long crossguard.

My research is kindly sponsored by patrons at patreon.com/Dimicator This is where you can find more material on medieval swords and swordplay.
