Knights Templar Sword
The Knights Templar were a monastic military order formed at the end of the First Crusade with the mandate of protecting Christian pilgrims on route to the Holy Land. Never before had a group of secular knights banded together and took monastic vows. In this sense they were the first of the Warrior Monks.
A Holy Knights Order whose ideals were to uphold honor and right was formed in 1119. This highly respected group of quintessential knights (to whom the famous Sir William Marshall was a member) was called the Order of the Knights Templar, whose members fought gallantly through the Crusades.
Our Templar swaord is 47 inches overall with a 440 stainless blade. The hilt is detailed cast depicting the Templar Traditions. Blade is etched.
