The Chevalier II sidesword, with its wide blade, G pommel, curved quillions, knuckle bow and two small ports, undoubtedly represents the best choice if the fencer needs a symmetrical protection. It is an excellent pairing with our buckler, targa, parrying dagger or a cape, but it also behaves perfectly as a sword alone. The Chevalier II sidesword is a sport version of the 16th century historical ones, simplified and designed specifically for HEMA.
