This ambidextrous Pappenheimer style hilt is light, has a clean look, and lots of hand coverage. It is a variant of AVBN 64 with cockleshells for the first filled side ring and no extra supporting bars for the outside ring.

The shells are solidly welded on the inside but look as though they have been bolted on, as most late-period Bilbos and Pappenheimers would have been made.

I ordered the “Shell Hilt Pappenheimer” with Stright swelled end quillions. Its not too heavy nor is it too light. Its not light enough for a speed build. Not too heavy to cause arm fatigue. Lighter than a cup hilt. Superb hand protection. Well built, superb welding in the inside. For my personal sword assembly, I put this guard on a “38” inch blade with a “6” inch long tang and a Acorn pommel (8.7 ounces) for my sidesword build. For me, the point of balance is below the guard. Giving me a nimble and quick point control and disengages and quick cuts. And not heavy for the arm. Feels great in the hand. Aesthetically pleasing to boot. 4/5 Looks, 4/5 Function, 3/5 Price
