swords for sale - Do you have any medieval swords? If you do, then you probably know what the hype is all about. Something about buying a medieval sword is very magical and surreal to most people.

When you hear the word medieval sword, what type of image comes into your head? I usually picture a long, double-edged sword with a straight hand guard. You might picture a Japanese Samurai sword with a curved blade and round hand guard.

swords for sale - No matter what type of medieval sword you prefer, there are a few ideas that you should keep in mind when shopping for your next sword:

1. Most medieval swords are made with medium to high carbon steel. What this means to you is that your sword will stay sharp for extended periods of time. This also means that the sword can and will rust if you don't take care of it.

To prevent your sword from rusting, simply keep a light coat of oil or Vaseline on your blade after every use and dry it off with a towel if it becomes wet.

2. Take your time when removing the sword from it's scabbard. You should get used to the way that the sword slides out and save your fingers from being split wide open!

3. Don't forget to take care of your stainless steel swords also! I suggest that you lubricate these swords just like you would with your carbon steel blades. Again, without proper care your stainless steel swords will rust and corrode.
