SH2250 - BASTARD SWORD
The strong and fearless Swiss and Germans originally carried these early weapons, although bastard
swords soon became popular in other regions such as the British Isles and Europe. The term bastard
undoubtedly comes from the fact that the sword, because of its design, has no legitimate claim to being
classified as either a single-handed or two-handed weapon. The two-handed sword was a weapon
developed for the use of the foot soldier and had became quite common by the early 1500’s. The combat
styles developed for the two-handed sword were the particular specialty of the Northern European
Cultures, with the Germanic nations being quite active in its development and use. .
