The Philosopher’s Way

The Agrippa I sidesword, with its bulb pommel, straight quillons and knuckle bow is perfect to introduce the user to the sacred geometry of the Renaissance fencing treatises, counting on a good balance between cut and thrust. It is an excellent pairing with our buckler, targa, parrying dagger or a cape, but it also behaves perfectly as a sword alone. The Agrippa I sidesword is a sport version of the 16th century historical ones, simplified and designed specifically for HEMA.
