20″ Hand Forged Modern Khopesh Sword
US$ 231.00
This beautiful Khopesh sword with its 20″ blade made from 5160 High Carbon Steel is a piece of art hand forged by our blacksmiths with only traditional tools at our forge. This sword is an excellent tool for camping, hiking through the jungle, and agricultural or household use.
About traditional Khopesh:
A khopesh is a sword with curved blade where the cutting edge of the blade is usually on the blade’s convex edge. A traditional khopesh has a sickle-like shape. That’s why some scholars classify the khopesh as a sickle-sword, a type of sword found across the Nile valley, east Africa, the Middle East, and the Indian subcontinent. As a curved sword, the khopesh was used primarily as a cutting, slashing, and chopping weapon. This was useful before the use of body armor designed to withstand slashing became widespread.
A trusty blade for every adventure:
This Khopesh sword with leather sheath is designed for heavy-duty applications – a great choice for camping, hiking through the jungle, and agricultural or household use.
Sharp, foolproof blade:
We use 5160 high carbon steel for the blades so that it is flexible while being strong enough to retain its shape even after heavy use. The curved belly allows for more power with each swing of the sword.
Comfortable ergonomic design:
A beautifully carved handle allows for a firm yet comfortable grip. This sword has an enlarged heel to prevent the blade from slipping out of your hands.
Sheath:
This 20 inch Khopesh sword comes with a leather sheath for safe carrying & storage of the blade. The design of the sheath ensures that you’re safe even while the sword is fastened on your belt loop.
Reviews by our beloved customers:
Grind lines not quite as clean as on the photo example… but razor sharp, and otherwise a fantastic example of the craft… It’s a little forward heavy, much bigger than you think it’s going to be…. fantastic, seriously just awesome. A+
