Construction and materials

With our humble beginnings in 1994 and a passion for preserving old European traditions and historical processes in sword-making, a team of artisans known as ArmArt built upon this as our foundation to crafting historically-accurate quality arms. Pavel Neumann - director of ArmArt who himself trained in experimental archeology and numismatics - recognized the value of returning to the methods of old world craftsmanship such that a sword fully embodies the qualities of the antiques. Our team studies period pieces in Europe's museums to capture every nuance possible.

On these pages, the swords exhibited are not stock models, but can serve as a template to give you an idea of what you would like, and most swords presented on this website will facilitate personalization (e.g. engravings, materials, etc.). Or, if there is a particular sword from a history book you would like to reproduce, you can contact us for a fully customized order.

Each order is then taken and approached individually and each sword made to order.

No short cuts, no sub-standard materials, no gimmicks - just swords made the old way, one at a time. Therefore, no two ArmArt swords will ever be identical - as unique as you are as an individual.

The ArmArt group is pleased to be your custom tailor and will only make swords that are historically based.
