Dissecting the Cinquedea
Hope you guys enjoyed! You can check out my Artstation page, I usually post the 3D models here before making the video, and get your own Cinquedea of my gumroad page.

Excalibur.
To add to the dating/debate as to who was buried in mound 1 and the likelihood it was Rædwald, the magnificent belt purse buried in the site, with its fabulously decorated lid, contained thirty seven gold coins, each from a separate Frankish mint and three gold blanks (one for each of the rowers who would have crewed this magnificent ship). Those coins have been dated-the latest falls within Rædwald’s lifetime and no later. This pretty much rules out his sons. Rædwald ruled for a long time-there are other elements of dating evidence which basically put the grave as coming from Rædwald’s reign.
Wrong! It is the tribë the Franken that named france.
The handle looks way too thin.
WAR IS EVIL
This is so cool. I’d love to recreate this sword someday myself. I’m currently working on an Excalibur sword, and wish to work my way up to the Sutton-Hoo sword.
best of luck man, I hope it turns out great for you!
Re Excalibur, if you wish assistance or comment, contact me. Good Luck.
This I'd a great video. Thanks for saying "what we know". As an archeologist, I really appreciate your input. Cheers!
the tomahawk before tomahawks
Beautiful rendering! I'm quite familiar with this sword, having read the article in the Ken Warner "Knives" publication from the '90s, I also own the Deepika cutlery reproduction of this sword, so it's even familiar to my hand. Your animation of the internal construction of the hilt is excellent, as well as your very polite suggestion that due to the poor condition of the find, we'll never truly know how the blade was formed. I can give my opinion from multiple sources, but must agree with your wording. The aforementioned Deepika piece does not show the difference in the garnet pommel cap, but it's clearly described by the British museum curator in all of her discussions on the topic. I guess this is a long winded "well done" compliment. I'd love to see similar rendering of Danish and German bronze age swords, or any bronze age long blades showing the detailed artistry of blade design. Keep em comin'
Thank you! I've been on a bit of a break from these videos since they took me so long to make, but your comment gets me excited to make more in the future! I will happily add your suggestion to my backlog!
The cinquedea is better than the katana
Cinquedea is awesome
I think the Cinquedea was a civilian weapon, not really for using, but for representations. Specially in northern Italy, Milano, Ferrara, Venezia. I personally love this type of blade and when I started to copy them, I realized, that a Cinquedea is a masterpiece of blacksmithing and etching art. To reach this quality level of the old Masters you need soo many years of practice and experiance.
Exactly it was exclusively a civilian self defense weapon. Was sort of a work around for sword laws in certain Italian cities.
Patrick Barta, a Czech blade smith makes a fantastic reproduction of this sword. Having said I'm out of here, no interest in a digital build, I already know about the construction details, I was hoping to watch the process.
Fair enough, Patrick Barta's recreation was indeed excellent.
Listening to people's explainations of ancient master craftsmen as thick and lucky, even though some ancient creations cannot be recreated with modern tools? So who's the thicky? I've also noticed that historians and archiologists will force the finds to their thesis rather than accept what is found, eg- that there were four gold pieces riveted to the horn handle, and not the two that were found with it! If it was four they would have found two more, simple.... Anyway nice presentation.
Hi Andrew, I really like that point, because it's something that really grinds my gears sometimes. Whenever anything is found, it feels like we just accept the first explanation we hear. Even though we shouldn't forget, it's just a theory.
People don't invest in selfdefense that does not work. Sword breakers and buckers may look unimpressive but they work.
The real purpose of Cinquedea (other than a great canvas for embellishment) is a mystery. Given the materials of the time (better than bronze but nowhere near today’s steel), could this have been a MULTI purpose implement, a weapon AND a utilitarian tool? A big one comes between machete and cleaver/hatchet, while small one falls between dagger and kitchen knife.
Hey lane, that's an interesting idea. But When you look at a cinquedea and compare it to a machete you'll see the latter puts a great deal of mass at the end of the blade whereas the cinquedea does the opposite. This would make it inferior at cutting, and how well it does as a weapon I discussed already. But considering how lavish these things were embellished, would the person who could afford such a thing do any substantial amounts of either manual work or fighting?
@@digital_blacksmith I have to agree. Showing off seems to be their primary purpose.
@@lanedexter6303 indeed, but still an interesting idea to consider. Maybe there could've been a sentiment that it was just a fashionable accessory that wasn't great but just kind of good enough as a tool and a weapon. But I'm not sure how many people would risk ruining the precious gilding and bluing on the blade just to cut some vegetables with it.
@@digital_blacksmith true. I am thinking of it as a tool, but it comes from a time of highly ornamented personal weaponry. We’d see more very plain ones if it was a multi purpose tool. I keep trying to think of a rational useful reason for that blade design. But I strike out.
@@lanedexter6303 somewhere deep down, I like to imagine that someone tried to combine a dagger and a buckler into one xD
"I'm excited" proceeds to sound like he couldn't be more bored for the rest of the video.
obviously not a battle sword , very nice video clip though
Did you see that ben abbott made one recentlyish
I just checked it out, that looks sick. Would love to get myself a replica like that one day.
Oh crap, nice production quality, right off the bat. Def a subsribe
I'm glad you enjoyed it! There will be more soon if you can put up with my very irregular upload schedule.
Great video, great artwork
I'm very glad you enjoyed it!
Great video, hope you get to see the real one some day!
if I ever get to the UK it'll be on the top of my list!
Great video. Making one of these right now.
man, that's awesome! Would love to see it.
@@digital_blacksmith Ill let you know when its done. May not be able to post it anywhere for awhile. Video helped out with planning for it though. Thanks!
@@0metwnherh04 I'm really glad to hear it! Also, the guy who made the of recreation in the museum wrote a full article on his process, might be worth checking out as well.
@@digital_blacksmith yup, found it thanks
Super cool!
Sorry to say that because of gumroad's policy on free items I had to instead charge 1 dollar to get around its file size restrictions.
Wow super well done man :D
Thanks a lot man!
