This book has a comprehensive list of swords and numerous photos. It is worth every penny. I look through it a lot. The categories are handy, the writing is good and the photos are excellent.

By Bjorn
Format:Paperback
This is standard work for medieval edged weapon classification. It will classify and provide type examples for European straight edged cruciform swords from the early medieval to renaissance period. This book is often cited as reference in discussions among collectors, reenactors and sword-smiths alike.
