Sword fo Saladin from The Kingdom of Heaven

The Saracen sword carried by Saladin has a hand forged blade made of high-carbon steel which has a forked tongue blade design(a most unique aspect of this medieval sword).The ornate pommel and crossguard are plated in a rich 24k gold giving this medieval sword beauty beyond compare.Great detail was taken to ensure this sword has been expertly reproduced to match the movie prop sword.

Saladin died in Damascus in 1193, but his spirit lives on in this and other cities. Just outside the old city walls, which were once expanded and strengthened by Saladin, his statue stands as a present-day protector. Inside the walls in a red-domed building just behind the famous Umayyid Mosque, his mausoleum lies between columns that were once part of the Roman Temple of Jupiter.
