The Stirling Monument William Wallace Sword
The Stirling Monument William Wallace Sword
The William Wallace Sword on display at the Stirling Monument, Scotland, is alleged to have been used by Wallace at the battles of Stirling Bridge and Falkirk. After his execution in 1305, the sword is alleged to have been sent to John de Menteith, governor of Dumbarton Castle. In 1505, accounts show that James IV of Scotland paid 26 shillings to an armourer for "binding of Wallace's sword with cords of silk" and fitting it with "a new hilt and plummet" – which would account for the 16th century style hilt. A “new scabbard and a new belt” was also purchased at that time. Legend tells that the original scabbard and belt were made from the dried skin of Hugh Cressingham, one of the English Commanders at the Battle of Stirling Bridge.
Our William Wallace Sword is a replica of the one displayed at the Stirling Monument. It features a huge 136cm blade, the total length of the sword being an intimidating166cm! The 16th century style hilt fittings are made from solid steel and feature a leather-wrapped wooden grip. This impressive sword has a blunt blade and is designed for display only.
