16th c. sword inspired by originals and training swords that Achille Marozzo could have used to learn and teach the bolognese school, preserved in his Opera Nova chiamata Duello (1536)
The Marozzo I sidesword, with its wide blade, fig pommel, curved quillions and one small port is an archetypical Marozzo sword. It is an excellent pairing with our buckler, targa, parrying dagger or a cape, but it also behaves perfectly as a sword alone. The Marozzo I sidesword is a sport version of the 16th century historical ones, simplified and designed specifically for HEMA.
