The quillons of the guard curve towards the blade. In the center, there is a ring on the guard for even greater protection.
The hilt continues with a ridged, two-handed grip. Black leather covers the grip as well. The hilt ends with a heavy, scent stopper-shaped pommel. It counterbalances the long blade for greater agility.

Well, be careful what you ask for. I was looking for a big sword, I’m 6’6″, 300lbs and my Ren-Fest costume is a barbarian, so I wanted a large sword to put in my back scabbard. This is definitely it! Looks amazing and is extremely sharp. Probably a little too sharp for what I need it for but it is a solid, heavy, well made sword. Overall construction is good, cosmetics are 4 and a half stars, the tang has some ruff spots but the leather handles are very comfortable. This is a 2 handed sword and takes both hands to wield it. I am happy!
