Deepeeka Primus - Writhen Gothic German Sword

A stunning reproduction of a Writhen Gothic German Sword by Deepeeka's Primus line. Inspired by an original dated to 1480, this bastard sword is rich with intricate Gothic details—from the twisted brass guard and pommel to the meticulously carved wooden grip resembling entwined branches. Every component reflects the opulence and martial elegance of the Holy Roman Empire. Crafted for display or reenactment, this sword is a statement of power, prestige, and artistic craftsmanship.

The original sword that inspired this piece was believed to have been forged for a nobleman or wealthy individual within the Germanic states around 1480. The style—characterized by twisting branch-like motifs—is well-documented in both surviving examples and period artwork. While lavish in design, these weapons were no less formidable on the battlefield. The Writhen Gothic Sword stands as a testament to the artistry and martial sophistication of the era.
