Weaponry

Displaying elegant curves and ornate decorations on the stock, the Medium 17th Century Crossbow with Rifle Stock is a superb representation of European weaponry. Along the hardwood, stock is engraved floral accents and golden-colored ornaments.

The bow is crafted from steel, with pieces of leather on each end that connect to the hemp bowstring. The front sight, back sight, and stirrup are all made from burnished metal which adds historical appeal as well as durability to this design. Included with this weapon is a wooden bolt, which is tipped with metal.

This is a decorative weapon, so it is not meant for hunting or target shooting. It is not intended to be fired.

The North Grimston Dagger was found by accident in 1902 while laborers were digging on Lord Middleton´s land near North Grimston. The smaller of the two swords discovered was decorated with an anthropomorphic (man-shaped) handle. Ownership of such a rare item marks the man buried at North Grimston out to be one of the most important people of Iron Age East Yorkshire. 

The dagger is one of a small number of similar weapons found across Celtic Europe which features a human figure forming the hilt. Other examples were found in Hungary, Northern Italy, Switzerland, and France. This dagger can now be seen on display at Hull and East Riding Museum.

Flintlock pistols were used as both military and self-defence weapons. Their effective range was much shorter than a musket and they were frequently used in combination with sword or cutlass. The flintlock mechanism was first added to pistols in 1610 and by 1630 they started to become more common. The Parliamentarian cavalry were known to use early forms of flintlock pistol during the English Civil War. They proved to be effective against the unarmoured musketeers but were no match for the armour worn by both pikemen and cavalry. During the 1700's flintlock pistols would be carried by army and navy officers, as well as more notorious characters such as pirates and highwaymen. The flintlock pistol remained popular until the middle of the 19th century when it was gradually replaced by the more reliable percussion cap pistol.

Our Flintlock Pistol is hand crafted in Italy. It features a real wood stock and cast metal parts with an antique brass finish. Although this item is designed and manufactured with display in mind, the firing mechanism does work and the hammer can be released by pulling the trigger. It is not possible to make this item fire and it is not suitable for re-enactment. It is great for Pirate cosplay and fancy dress!

The Celtic people lived during the Iron Age, dominating most of western and central Europe. They decorated their weapons handles with precious stones, ivory, or enamel. They adorned the swords and helmets with original human figures or animal heads. The weapons were almost sacred to the ancient Celts. One for the battlefield, more sober and functional, and another ceremonial, much more elaborate.
