THE ART OF THE SWORD

When identifying Toledo by its crafts, one is, without doubt, the forging of metals. And within forging, the art of sword-making has been the best known for centuries. Steel from Toledo has been one of the most prestigious in the world since vsigoth times (the vi century), above all because of its flexibility, ideal for the practising of fencing.

Their extraordinary hardness made of each of these Toledo swords an invincible force in the hands of an expert swordsman. Even today, many of them are part of the uniform for some armies over the world.
