The Serenity is a very unique sword; it is a merging of elements from swords both East and West. Into its design is poured the elements of the Kriegsmesser and Swiss Saber melded with the Chinese Liuyedao and the Katana. Only 10 Serenity swords were crafted by Longship Armoury.



The blade is of L6 high carbon steel; the blade has much of the profile of the Kriegsmesser and it is merged with the thick spine and long-wedge cross section of the katana and complete with a fuller much akin to a bo hi. The tip of the sword flares out into a tip much like the Liuyedao - the thick spine disappears here and instead transitions into a sharpened false edge. This makes the entire plane of the tip region quite thin - idea for slicing with minimum drag through the target.



The dual ring guard and pommel are blued steel and the wooden grip is tightly wrapped in cord and overlaid with tight dark brown leather.



The sword comes with a gloss-finished poster of Grace - a swordswoman who is the personification of the spirit of this sword illustrated by Warren Louw. This poster doubles as a certificate of authenticity; it is numbered and signed by swordsmith John Lundemo on the back. This specific one is No. 5 of the series.



The sword ships in a custom-fitted wooden shipping crate.
