The sire De Joinville was a French knight known for his bravery and devotion to his king, St. Louis. During the 7th Crusade, he was attacked by a Saracen after having lost his lance. So the valiant De Joinville tucked this sword under his arm as you would a lance, charged, and slew his opponent. His valorous action inspired our choice of his name for this beautiful weapon.
This was a very popular design during the 1400s due to its ease of punching through the armor of the day. The whole style of this simple piece is quite lovely and puts emphasis on the deadly nature of it. Made from 1065 high carbon steel by the smiths at Windlass. Includes leather scabbard with metal throat and tip. Hilt parts are steel and the grip is hand-carved hardwood and stained a rich hue.
