Valiant Armoury Craftsman Series – Malatesta Longsword with Scabbard – Brown

The Valiant Armoury Craftsman Series Malatesta is based on a design from framed swordsmith Christian Fletcher and the design seamlessly melds graceful proportions with fine-tuned performance and a lively balance. The blade is 6150 high carbon steel which was twice-normalized to refine its internal grain structure and to create optimal conditions for superior tempering when the blade was heat treated. The sharpened edges have appleseed edge geometry to fortify the blade edges and make them more resistant to damage over a simpler flat-grind edge.

The crossguard and pommel are fashioned from mild steel and the hardwood grip is wrapped in tightly-fitted leather of premium quality. A hot-peen pommel assembly gives the sword an overall robust construction. The sword is matched with a high quality wood-core scabbard which is bound in quality leather and matched with adjustable hangers and a buckled sword belt of durable leather for a complete package.

Sometimes I think about how the entire history of the advancement of human weapons can be boiled down to: “we found more elaborate ways to hit things with rocks…”

Spears? Sharpened rocks.

Slingshot? Ranged rocks.

Arrows? Sharpened rocks with range.

Hammers/Clubs? Refined rocks.

Swords/axes? Sharpened refined rocks.

Guns? Sharpened, refined rocks, propelled by explosives…

We discovered how to make explosives, and we fine tuned that technology to better propel refined and sharpened rocks at insane distances… we are still hitting things with rocks… we just became experts in the science of hitting things with rocks… The human race is basically just a “dump everything into geology” build…

Pre-Owned – Legacy Arms Brookhart Hospitaller Sword

Blade Condition: Good with a medium amount of cosmetic blemishing present

Hilt Condition: Good condition with a medium amount of cosmetic blemishing present

Grip: Very good condition Construction Condition: Sword is still durably constructed and components are still tightly fitted.

Scabbard: Good overall with a large amount of cosmetic blemishing. Scabbard still fits the blade well.

Designed by Bruce Brookhart, the Legacy Arms Hospitaller Sword has a blade forged from 5160 high carbon steel. The crossguard and pommel are blackened steel and the blade is durably mounted into the hilt with a peen over the pommel. The wood grip is wrapped in tight black leather. Included with the sword is a wooden scabbard which is finished in a wrap of black leather and a blackened steel chape.

There is a matching dagger for this sword which is available separately.

Although the manufacturer considers these as battle ready weapons. We have found that the blade temper is too soft for us to list them as such on some of the longer bladed swords.

In popular media depiction and analysis it is the Knights Templar who hold the imaginative sway the archetypal Crusader. Too often forgotten is the Knights Hospitaller who possessed a presence in the Crusader Kingdoms to rival that of the Templars; the military arm of the Hospitaller Order had a power base in the Crusader Kingdom of Antioch and held the great fortress Krak des Chevaliers. Their knights and men at arms were a common sight among the garrisons and armed caravans of the Crusader Kingdoms and were certainly a significant force many of the the major battles.

Originally founded to provide for the housing and medical care of pilgrims to the Holy Land, the Hospitallers were known to operate a large hospital (hence the origin of their name) in Jerusalem with accommodation for 2,000 patients. Though their focus was on providing for Christian pilgrims their mandate eventually extended to providing care for other faiths, including Jewish patients who were provided with kosher food. An orphanage was also attached to this hospital and the children raised there were often inducted into the Order.

Despite having an origin rooted in providing a roof, food and care for pilgrims, the nature of the region and the ever-present conflict with Islam caused the Hospitallers to expand their mission to providing armed escort for pilgrim caravans – from this grew the military arm of the Order which would, in time, become the primary focus of the Hospitallers – that of a Crusading force for holding territory in the Levant.

When the Crusader Kingdoms crumbled and Crusading zeal waned in Europe, the Hospitallers would find themselves unable to operate in the Levant. Faced with no longer having a purpose or mission, they would entrench themselves in Cyprus and Rhodes and from there would police the Mediterranean from Barbary and Ottoman pirates and holding the islands for Christendom against encroaching Ottoman dominion. Their holding on Rhodes would be ended after the Ottoman 1522 Siege of Rhodes; It concluded with the Knights Hospitaller being graciously allowed to leave Rhodes by Ottoman Emperor Suleiman the Magnificent after a spirited defense of Rhodes from their large fortress.

Afterwards, the Knights would be granted a new base in Malta by Charles I of Spain and they would continue their anti-piracy mission (though they sometimes engaged in piracy themselves against Muslim shipping to shore up their coffers). Malta would fall when Napoleon invaded Malta in 1798 as part of his Egyptian Expedition. After fierce fighting the Knightly Order surrendered to the irrepressible Napoleon. Though the order would cling to existence its military and historical significance ended with the loss of Malta.

The Hospitallers were typically distinguished from the Templars and other Knightly Orders by bearing shields and surcoats of black with white crosses. Though they possessed a substantial force of knights and skilled men-at-arms that could rival the Templars, the Hospitallers would always have a significant investment in hospitals and way-stations under the patronage of their Order. Like the Templars, the ideal Hospitaller was a warrior monk wholly dedicated to martial skill and religious perfection. Unlike the Templars who were purposefully destroyed and dissolved in 1312, the Hospitallers would go on to have a far longer history.

Although the manufacturer considers these as battle ready weapons. We have found that the blade temper is too soft for us to list them as such on some of the longer bladed swords.
