Celtic Warrior Sword

Just got mine today and I was pleasantly surprised. It's a lot heavier in weight than I expected the only thing I see wrong is there wood handles have some minor defects and need to be sanded and refinished it was semi sharp out of the box but I can fix it to make it shaving Sharp. All in all a great Buy and a beautiful piece I am very well satisfied. I would recommend this for any collectors

The sword is nicely made, but, it just isn't Celtic. It looks more like a barbarian sword used by the Germans against the Romans at the Battle of Teutoberg Forest. The Handel is huge and well polished. The blade was thick, easy to sharpen, but, I really wish it was half again to twice as long as it is. Thanks BUDK for an awsome (German) sword.

This is a very nice piece. It has a good weight and feel in my hand, authentic looking from the era and was a very nice addition to my collection. Highly recommend this piece.

Just got it in the mail, nice sword and its awesome, sharp right out the box my friends are jealous.

Pakistan does good work! One of the better buys at Bud-K. I wouldn't buy it if it is made in India, China is OK, and Pakistan is the best! It is sharp, actually has a mirror polished blade, a wooden handle, nice brass work on the hilt and pommel, a unique design, and at a good price. A must buy for anyone interested in quality. Only draw back is it is a little bit short. Another six inches on the blade would have been nice. Still, one of the best buys from Bud-K so far......No wonder it has to be restocked! Get it while it is still available.

Believe other five star reviews. This sword is great! Solid sword! No loose parts. Feels great in ones hand! Great looking and great price! very happy! Thank you!

I purchased a pair of these swords a couple of years ago ....very well made, nice solid wood handles with brass appointments ...the blade is well crafted almost in the Gladius style with a nice blood groove and easily ready to be sharpened.

just got the blade yesterday. expected it to be longer at first glance, but then relized that it was as long as my arm, the perfect short sword.<br />shipping was faster than any other shipping online, but while the blade was slightly twisted, however it is hard to see unless looking right down the blade.<br />the scabbered is great for holding the sword, and the belt loop if just right. however, the sword is heavier than I expected, which is good.<br />all in all, a good first sword for a starting collection, not too sharp out of the box, and perfect for a little flair in a desplay.<br />GJ true swords!

this weapon is very light, semi-sharp, and in general fun to handle, the two long handle allows for a lot of dramatic swings and you can slip small branches with ease, the blade is held in place with several brass rivets, from a metal workers perspective this allows for a rather sturdy hold on the blade although i have not hit anything heaver than a pumpkin all in all one of the best blades i own.

Fabulous first sword, from the delivery to the weight to the aesthetic appeal.<br /><br />I'll start with the ordering and the shipping. I bought it on Sunday night, February 20th, around eleven o'clock PM. Within half an hour, it was confirmed and set to be shipped. I was impressed. The very next morning, it was picked up and set on its way, and it arrived at my house today, February 23rd, around one o'clock PM. These guys know how to ship something efficiently.<br /><br />The sword itself? A beautiful thing, it is. There was a bit of grime on the blade and a bit of tarnish about the guard, but the dirt came off with a clean rag, and I actually like the appearance of the tarnish.<br /><br />The handle is four pieces, plus the guard: Wood, separating-piece, wood, and pommel. An interesting note about the wood bits is that they can rotate. The one below the guard can move by about ~10 degrees, not much. The bottom wood grip turns freely, as does the separating-piece. Friction keeps them in place, though. The pommel stays in place securely.<br /><br />The blade did not come sharpened, but that is okay. The tip was very sharp and stabbish when it arrived.<br /><br />Basically, this is a great sword, even if the rotating guard is a bother sometimes. It feels like it could be easily sharpened, and for the most part is well-balanced. It's not perfect, but its pros surely outweigh the cons. I would definitely recommend it.

My girlfriend got this for me for my eighteenth birthday, and i love it. It's my favorite sword. I love the way it's crafted. It's a little cruddy looking, but nothing a little bit of polish can't fix. The sheath is pretty good. It does what it needs to do. It's a great buy. I love it.

Excellent sword, not sharp at all, I don't mind as I bought it for display purposes. One of the most sexy swords I have bought from true swords! Great value.

This sword is farly good, the scabered isent that good (it brokright away) but it is a really good sword for having a spare

Well, mine arrived missing its tip, but not too bad. I like the balance of this sword. Blade is straight, sheath good.

the sword itself is pretty nice, not as good as the other two celtic swords I have, but looks cool. the sheath, however, is horrible. the sword doesn't even fit in it all the way because of the wide piece toward the tip.

nice sword! just by wielding the weapon you can feel its sturdiness and how much damage could be done with it

I was happy with my purchase of this blade, but as other reviews have said, it is a very short sword. The quality is pretty nice, but my blade came not straight at all. I don't mind too much because it will be a display peice but still. The handle is great and sturdy. I don't know why the hand guard points down, it digs into your hand if you try to hold it too close to the blade. The sheath is one of the best things about this sword, I actually use it for some of my other swords from budk as well.
