By The Sword Catalog : Swords - Western European : CAS Iberia Medieval Swords : CAS Iberia Basket-Hilts and Small Swords : Scottish Basket Hilt Broadsword SH2002

Scottish Basket Hilt Broadsword
Ref: SH2002
Although Basket-Hilt swords appeared throughout Britain from the mid-sixteenth century on, their association with the the seventeenth and eighteenth century highlander has become legendary. Our Basket-Hilt Broadsword carries a typical Glasgow-style hilt from the mid-eighteenth century. It is likely that the blade of the original sword was made in Germany a century earlier and re-hilted as basket designs were refined. Although the blade of the original bears the “Andrea Ferara” name, it is unlikely that it was made by this renowned Spanish swordsmith, as many good quality blades of the period were so marked (in various spellings!), irrespective of the actual maker. The forged double-edged blade of our sword is in fully tempered high-carbon steel with a solid steel basket. The grip is wire-wrapped rayskin and the basket liner is of felt-covered leather. Blade inscribed with"ANDREA FERARA".
