A knight is a person granted an honorary title of knighthood by a monarch or other political leader for service to the monarch or country, especially in a military capacity. Historically, in Europe, knighthood was conferred upon mounted warriors. Often, a knight was a vassal who served as a fighter for a lord, with payment in the form of land holdings and food from serfs. The lords trusted the knights, who were skilled in battle on horseback. Knights often wore their sword by their side.  The Knights Gothic Medieval Mounted Warriors Sword is constructed of carbon steel, full tang with a fuller running down the center.  The single handed wheel pommel is simple and compliments the simplicity of the cross guard. The handle is made of the same leather as the sheath. The wooden scabbard had been covered all in leather and hand sewn. Attached to the scabbard as part of the design is a leather baldric with a brass buckle. Strap the Knights Gothic Medieval Mounted Warriors Sword to your side and be prepared for anything.
