Do not let its size fool you. There is nothing clumsy about the Two Handed Great Sword. Meant to be carried over the shoulder in its scabbard, this massive blade is well-balanced and easily wielded by those of great strength or stature. The high carbon steel blade is modeled after historic swords meant to make short work of pikemen and swordsmen alike, and it is equally effective against modern rifle butts and bayonets. To protect the hands from opposing weapons, this great sword features a large guard with side rings plus integral parrying hooks that allow the blade to be shortened for close range slashing and stabbing attacks. The handle is made of wood and covered with leather and is extra-long to afford a full two-handed grip. What is more, it is capped by a heavy steel pommel that helps counter balance its long blade and serves as an effective weapon in its own right. The Two Handed Great Sword is sturdy, strong, and battle ready. If you are looking for the ultimate in big performance-oriented swords, your search is over.

Well, be careful what you ask for. I was looking for a big sword, I’m 6’6″, 300lbs and my Ren-Fest costume is a barbarian, so I wanted a large sword to put in my back scabbard. This is definitely it! Looks amazing and is extremely sharp. Probably a little too sharp for what I need it for but it is a solid, heavy, well made sword. Overall construction is good, cosmetics are 4 and a half stars, the tang has some ruff spots but the leather handles are very comfortable. This is a 2 handed sword and takes both hands to wield it. I am happy!
