1321 The Nomad

Rangers are a fantasy character 'archetype,' idealized warriors who
fight with honour and have a deep and abiding respect for nature. From
Strider and the Dunedain Rangers in Tolkien's Lord of the Rings novels to Drizzt Do'Urden in the Forgotten Realms books, Rangers are one of the most popular characters in fantasy fiction and role-playing games. Frequently depicted as the "lone warrior" character fighting in the shadows against evil, Rangers fight with sword, knife and bow, and are talented in all manner of wilderness and tracking skills. Friend of elves and other mystical creatures, they have a tendency to wander the land alone in search of injustice. Hence the name of this Ranger-inspired weapon, 'The Nomad.'

1330  ~ The Sage
 

Elves are mythical and magical creatures in many forms of fantasy
literature, and nowhere do they receive more attention than in J.R.R. Tolkien's writings. Tolkien's Elves are powerful beings, whose grace, beauty and skill are all too often overshadowed by their hubris. The Elves fight against the Dark Lord for millenia, sometimes winning decisive battles, other times bring brought to the brink of extinction. Only their strength that burns in their hearts seems to help them carry the day; their strength and the weapons of power that they create.

1316B The Hundred Year War Sword
15th Century, sword of

The 15th century witnessed some of the most beautiful medieval swords of the Medieval period. Complex architectural paradigms influenced smiths in both armor and sword design. Among the patterns of the early 15th century, a new trend emerged in handles designs, leading way to an increasingly popular ribbed layer handle construction. While some medieval swords were fitted with small latitudinal flanges at the top and bottom, others were crowned with circular rims. One such example is the sword of Johannes von Eglofstein, dating from 1411, from which our model was reproduced.
