Welcome to Hilt

The hilt of a sword is the handle or grip of the weapon, and it serves several important functions in the design and functionality of a sword. It is the part of the sword that the wielder holds onto, and it connects the blade to the user, playing a crucial role in controlling and manipulating the weapon during combat.

The design and features of a sword’s hilt can vary greatly depending on the sword’s intended use, historical period, and cultural influences. While the primary function of the hilt is to allow the wielder to safely and effectively control the blade, it can also be a highly decorative and symbolic part of the sword, showcasing craftsmanship, artistry, and the identity of its owner or creator. The hilt is a critical element in the overall balance and functionality of a sword, making it an essential component of this iconic weapon throughout history.
