Malleus Martialis Swords

Malleus Martialis Swords Historical trainers for sport, re-enactment & collection. I am Rodolfo Tanara and I founded Malleus Martialis in 2014.

As the first sword sang in my ears, I couldn’t do otherwise: I had to learn. Today I am still doing this, feeding my dream day by day, along with Eleonora, Paolo and Simone, and how not to mention Sampo the cat by my side. We love this work and we put our love (and rage in some cases!) in each sword, studying and finding the best compromises to create a modern tool that has its deep roots in our precious past.

Summer Break(ing) News | Aug 4th to Sep 8th

Finally, the time has come again. We can't tell you yet what we're up to , but this year was crazy in more ways than we can convey, so a recharging break is what we've earned before we come back to the battlefield.

→ Orders stay open
→ Shipping starts again in September
→ Urgent requests will be handled from the shoreline by our customer care heroes as soon as they've defeated a kraken or two.

Fair winds till we meet again, fellow adventurers!

CHEVALIER SIDESWORD IS BACK - NOW AMBIDEXTROUS!

The same hand that drew the bow across the violin cut the air with a sword.

"Never did any man combine such suppleness with so much strength," wrote the fencing master Henry Angelo of him. Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges, was the finest swordsman of the 18th century and one of the first Black composers to conquer the concert halls of Europe.

And this is the man who inspired the name of our Chevalier Sidesword, conceived as an homage to his timeless brilliance.

After some years absent from our store, it's back to order, completely redesigned and now *fully ambidextrous*.

Built on our Modular Sword System™, it features straight fish-tail quillons and improved wrist ergonomics thanks to the new curvy fig pommel. The double ports offer symmetrical coverage, gracefully shielding both the inside and outside of the hand for a safe, refined defense.

Blade available to order in three lenghts: 90-95-107 cm.

Bologne never said "I am not left-handed either." But if he had, no one would have doubted him :)

«Man is a dream about a shadow. But when some splendour falls upon him from above, a shining light rests upon men, and a gentle life.»
— Pindar, Pythian Odes 8, 95–97 (446 BC)

The Chevalier is back and out soon. Now fully ambidextrous.

MEYER RAPPIER REDESIGN ✨️
robinswords wasn't totally convinced by our previous Meyer Rappier. The knuckle bow didn't leave enough room for a gauntlet fully below the cross. Then we redesigned it taking his advice, and he gave the new one five months of weekly sparring.

What he found was a sword with two distinct personalities. Hold it for the cut and it has authority and blade presence. Shift your grip, get the thumb on the Schilt, and the tip becomes something else entirely: responsive, precise, easy to place exactly where you need it.

The hilt and blade took everything he threw at it. Longsword, military saber, sidesword. Some scuffs, nothing severe. Thanks also to the *bombproof* hilt, to say it in his words :)

Nothing's perfect, and we're happy to acknowledge it: Rob flagged the grip profile and the guard quillon block edge: we need to make the grip more rectangular and the quillon block edge more rounded. Both are addressed in every Meyer Rappier from now on and we're also sending him a replacement grip to test.

Features:
• Knuckle bow widened for full mobility with gauntlets
• Grip reshaped to 9 cm, + the 1 cm pommel neck for a comfortable hand position
• Diamond blade with Schilt | 106 cm overall | max width 3.5 cm
• Weight: 1020 gr (+/-50) | PoB: 9 cm from the cross
• High flex | thickened tip | 50 HRC
• Modular Sword System™, fully dismountable
• Cord and leather grip options available

And then there is the part that is harder to put into specs: everyone he handed it to came back grinning.

Thanks Rob! And you, go watch the full review on YT ❤️‍🔥
