These weapons are fast becoming the industry standard for production swords. Each sword is created with weight and handling in proportion to historical originals. The blades are made from 5160 spring steel and tempered to a hardness of 52 Rockwell which produces a powerful cutting edge. Unless otherwise noted these swords come sharpened.

 

The swords are also produced with a take down hilt for ease of care. Gus is now offering leather handle wraps and simple leather scabbards on some of his swords, as an extra feature.

 

Below is a great example of one of Gus Trim’s swords. The picture is the Mac X disassembled showing the tang and hilt components.
