Our well-educated and highly trained staff includes experts on historical weapons. Part-time consultants include: Simon Atherton, Prop Master (Braveheart, Saving Private Ryan, Mask of Zorro, Kingdom of Heaven & Gladiator), Joss Skottowe, prop armorer (Die Another Day, Sahara, Quantum of Solace), and Augusto Grassi, prop master (Rome). And we wouldn’t be who we are today without giving proper thanks to our founder Hank Reinhardt, a nationally acclaimed expert on edged weapons. He will be dearly missed.

We understand the hunger for well researched and well made historically accurate and battle-worthy weapons for the growing interest in medieval history and collectibles. We traveled far and wide armed with the wealth of information that was gathered from various museums and private collections around the world to scout for swordsmiths and manufacturers to give you quality weapons at affordable prices. Our continued association since our inception in 1985 with Windlass Steelcrafts has made us traverse the long road to where we can proudly proclaim our leadership in this arena.
