Medieval Swords & Replica   Looking for Cool Replica Swords?

If you have any intention of becoming an expert sword collector, there is one expert you should really try to learn from. His name? Ewart Oakeshott.

Mr Oakeshott died in 2002 but there is a vast array of books written by this master to help you learn more about medieval swords and weapons. Here are some you might want to read:

1. Records of Medieval Sword
2. The Sword in the Age of Chivalry
3. Sword in Hand:: A history of the Medieval sword
4. The Archaeology of Weapons: Arms and Armour from Prehistory to the age of Chivalry
5. Swords of the Viking Age
6. The Sword in Anglo-Saxon England: Its Archaeology and Literature

Other books from the Oakeshott’s “Knight” Series:

1. A Knight and His Weapons
2. A Knight in Battle
3. A knight and His Armor
4. A Knight and His Castle
5. A Knight and His Horse

Later Period Sword books:

1. European Weapons and Armour: From the Renaissance to the industrial revolution

Of course, Mr Oakeshott is not the only author that wrote books about Medieval weapons, but he is by far one of the most prestigious. I feel reading these books will have you on the right track to become an expert.

P.S.: All of these books can be purchased at Amazon.com
