Khopesh Sword History & Our Handmade Replica

Take a look at our Handmade Khopesh Sword Replica. See video on the history of the sword, a demonstrations of the sword and close up pictures of the sword. http://TraditionalArcheryBows.com. Produced by Scorpion Swords & Knives, LLC. See our Website for details on our knife making techniques: normalizing, heat treatment, hardness testing, and more. Khopesh is the Egyptian name of the Canaanite sickle-sword. Its origins can be traced back to third millennium Sumer. It was initially used against the Egyptians in war, but as the kingdom of Egypt improved trade relations with other kingdoms, eventually it adopted the Khopesh. While originally these ancient swords were used against the Egyptians, they were so impressed by them that they adopted them as their own and the Khopesh eventually became the very symbol of Egyptian authority, with two such swords even found in the tomb of the legendary Pharaoh/Mummy Tutankhamun (c 1350 BC).

If this was the type of sword they were using - they better have stayed in the desert. Chain-mail would make this thing useless.
