Quick and elegant describe the Scottish Court sword. Replicating an original dating from the 1730s and belonging to an officer in Prince Charles Edward Stuarts army at Culloden, the finely chiseled silver-plated hilt and three-edged hollow ground blade exemplify the consummate skill of the swordsmiths of the period. The blade is hand forged from high-carbon steel, with a hollowed triangular section - a difficult blade to make but typical of smallswords of the period.
