Sword series description:

 

 This swords are the habitual Thai Darb swords taken a step forward in the esthetical aspect. Either one, two or three embossed decorative parts can be selected to be placed onto the scabbard. Regarding the 3 parts selection, a choice of two style is even offered: style a with crown like borders, and style b with more leveled  borders. The handle may been given an additional touch by enclosing it into an embossed decorative casing as well, if not desired or chosen then the same wood will be used for the scabbard and handle. The wooden parts may be painted brown, be varnished or painted black or Bordeaux red. The scabbard is additionally decorated with a few twine rings as shown on the picture. Again, if a wooden hilt is selected, the guard and pommel can be made of stainless steel or brass. On the other hand, if an embossed part is decided on for the handle, all embossed elements (for scabbard and handle) can be made of copper or silver, and be plated (copper only), painted or gilded. Finally, the price is case sensitive, composed in relation to all the options just described.

 

Blade selection and tangs for this sword series:

 

Blades

 A choice of three different blade steel distinctiveness is offered (see blade material choice below).

Blade engravings and their performed methods can be chosen for a variety of blade shapes and styles (note that stainless steel blades cannot carry etched engravings).

Tangs

See all the different tangs habitually used here.

 

For the base price, two customary tangs are offered:

 

1) the tang for the swords with an embossed casing on the handle is a rat-tail tang: the wooden handle is twisted onto a big wood screw that is welded on the blade's tang (see here).

 

2) the usual tang for swords without embossed casings on the handle (habitual Darb's tang) is a rat tail tang composed of a rod welded to a small tang left on the blade. The other end of the rod is threaded to screw on the pommel and fasten the blade to the handle, see here

 

Two additional tangs are offered for swords without casings on the handle, for an additional charge:

 

- a half tang or tang usually used for the Krabi Krabong swords, see here

- a full tang, the tang of choice for the expert and frequent user, see here

 

The usual tang, half tang and full tang type is only obtainable for Darbs without handle casings!

What else is so exclusive ?

Our articles are not mass produced. All sword parts are hand made to size and adjusted in the final assembly and finishing stages. Each part is therefore unique in its form and dimensions. Similar parts are thus seldom interchangeable, subsequently every individual sword distinguishes itself by its uniqueness.

  Fabrication details

with rivets

* though full tang constructed handles without rivets might be a little less sturdily fixed to the blade, the swords are still fully functional and allow efficient cutting. A possible advantage of such a construction might be that the sword is completely dismountable. The blade in this case is secured onto the handle by the pommel that is bolted onto the tang's screw.

 

The half tang and full tang types are only obtainable for Darbs without handle casings!
