2020年4月29日 · In the regions where the Khopesh was popular like Egypt and Canaan, most armies fought without any armor, but used large shields made out of wicker or a frame of wood covered in hide. Everything about the design of the Khopesh made …

2007年3月14日 · The khopesh also refered to as sickle sword is actually neither a sickle nore a sword, but originally a type of axe, the so-called epsilon axe / fenestrated axe (dating to around 2400-2000BC). Below is a schematic overview of the development from this axe into the khopesh:

2007年3月16日 · I made the hilt plates from Acasia. They are glued to the khopesh using gum arabicum (also from the Acasia tree), mixed with a little bit of honey to reduce the brittleness. The khopesh is 56cm long, and weighs 690grams. Here's some eye-candy : N.b. this khopesh is obviously not for sale, but for my own personal collection!

2024年6月7日 · How do you like the Khopesh? I am hedging between that and the Mindleheim for next year. Also, you should tell everyone the swords in your picture. I know three out of five and think I know a fourth, but not sure. *edited to correct the Type G2b Last edited by J. Nicolaysen on Sat 04 Oct, 2014 7:50 pm; edited 1 time in total

Comparing the Burridge Naue II and the DT 215a is like night and day. All my other bronze swords bow down to the awesomeness that is the Burridge bronze.

2008年3月25日 · We have a whole lot of excellent and skilled smithies who post and read here, and I would really like to have a Khopesh (something like 2nd Dynasty, Ramses II period...) custom-made from very good materials (steel, not bronze). Price, within reason, is not an issue. (But please remember that NZ $1.00 is US 80c, ok? Haha!)

2004年11月27日 · With all the recent attention on Alexander the Great, I thought I would start a thread on a very interesting sword… one that the Macedonian general may have used… The Kopis/Falcata!
