NM-25B – Norman Swordsman
The sword was one of the most prized weapons of the medieval warrior. More costly to produce than the common spear, it was both an effective close-combat weapon and a symbol of the fighting status of the man who carried it.
NM-25B – Norman Swordsman depicts a Norman warrior ready to close with the enemy during the campaigns of 1066. Protected by his shield and armed with his sword, he represents the infantry who fought alongside William the Conqueror’s spearmen, archers and mounted knights.
His fighting stance makes him particularly effective among the front ranks of a Norman assault, helping create the impression of fierce hand-to-hand combat around the Anglo-Saxon shield wall.
Available from The Military Workshop – a striking John Jenkins figure for expanding a Norman army or Battle of Hastings 1066 display.
Brand: John Jenkins
