This option replaces the standard waisted grip of the Ringeck sword with a tapered cylindrical grip.

In the first half of the 15th century, swordmaster Sigmund Ringeck compiled a book with comments on the fencing teachings from Johannes Liechtenauer’s verses from c.1389. (Master Sigmund Ringeck’s Commentaries on Johann Liechtenauer’s Fechtbuch – c. 1389 to 1440) Ringeck’s longsword style is very simple and yet elegant in its approach, based on efficiency and simplicity. While many of the Medieval fighting manuals primarily show counter-techniques and tricks, Ringeck’s greatness is that he starts with the basics and then step-by-step teaches the student the secrets of the longsword.

The Albion Ringeck Medieval War Sword features a sharpened high carbon steel blade heat-treated to a fine temper in the Albion Forge Shop. The grip is of stabilized birch, wrapped with cord and covered with the highest grade vegetable-tanned calfskin.

    AMAZING RINGECK I just received my Ringeck sword from KOA last monday. I ‘ve chosen to buy the black tapered cylindrical grip one. Once unboxed, you really feel that the handling of this sword is just amazing.
    I’ve not made cutting exercises yet, but the sharpening of the edges seems really good (even without additionnal sharpening from KOA).
    The sword seems really sturdy with its thick blade. It tapers gently along the blade to the point which seems to be able to pierce chain mail easily…
    A year ago I already bought an Albion Crecy (via the Albion website). It’s also an magnificent and usefull sword.
    If you like swords, just try to spare money to buy at least one Albion. That’s almost impossible to be disapointed. You will feel what a real historical medieval sword should have been.
