Boar swords were quite common in the 16th and early 17th centuries in Europe. Unlike the boar spears they sported sword hilts, usually in the typical for that period styles, like this one.
The term is less popular, but if you do a search on it, you will find them. Here, for instance: http://karabela-arms.com/index.php?r...product_id=114 Often simply called Hunting Swords. Here's the typical example of that class of weapons. Last edited by Foxbat; 13th December 2017 at 11:43 PM. |
