FORTE STAGE COMBAT SWORD RENTAL
Broadsword Page

The broadsword is actually a Victorian term coined for the primary edged weapon of the Medieval period (back then, they didn't think their blades were particularly broad). These varied in length from 3 feet - 5 feet and were held with a single handed grip, a hand and a half grip, or a two handed grip. For both historical accuracy as well as ease of combat choreography, most our broadswords are hand and a half weapons. This means they are light enough to be wielded with one hand, but the grip is long enough to fit both hands if so desired.

We have also included two non-medieval "broad" swords, as some might search for them on this page: the Roman Shortsword and the Japanese Katana. These are at the bottom of the grid below. Contact Tim Frawley with any questions.
