The Long-Sword is a weapon that has a long double-edged blade and handle long enough for two hands. This larger weapon enabled fighters to make stronger cuts or powerful thrust against their opponent. These swords were in use as early as the 14th century. The length varied between 40" and 48", with 48" being a common length. Authentic steel weapons weigh from 2.5 to 3.5 lbs. (1.1 to 1.6kg)

Great sword
I’ve had good luck with this waster. Lots of hard pell work has been put in. At some point I knocked the guard lose. Not sure how though. I added some shaved wood pieces into the gap and it’s nice and tight now. This has a nice shape and design. A very attractive sword in its own right but it performs wonderfully.

Does well for light use
Its not bad, but it is a bit clunky. The cross guard does not hold up well against heavy strikes, mine came apart. I glued it back together and only use it for very light sparring and drills.I'm sure it was meant to handle heavy sparring, but the accessional heavy blow shouldn't destroy it. For the price it is still worth it. Just don't use it against opponents who are heavy handed.
