Dagger, ca. 1620; Mughal
Indian
Steel, gold, rubies, emeralds, textile
The hilt of the dagger is constructed of heavy sections of gold over an iron core and its scabbard mounts are of solid gold. All the intricately engraved surfaces are set with gems and colored glass finely cut with floral forms. The designs closely parallel those in Mughal painting of the early seventeenth century, suggesting the dagger dates from the reign of Emperor Jahangir (1605–27), whose deep love of nature, especially flowers, is well documented in his memoirs, the Tuzuk. The blade is forged of watered steel.

Prehistoric Swords
The predecessors of the very first ancient swords were basically pressure flaked flint and obsidian daggers - and let's be honest, we aren't going to find too many replicas of these for sale (though if you are interested, there's a nifty little site here which actually makes them for an average price of around US$150, and even sells a few books on how to create your own!).

Egyptian Swords (Khopesh)
The Egyptians actually made very little use of swords until the Iron age, but even then preferred to use them only as a back-up weapon to their bows, spears and axes.

The most notable exception was the Bronze Canaanite Sickle Sword, or Khopesh, which traces its origins to Sumeria around the third millennium BC.

Middle Stone Age Tools

Between about 400,000 and 200,000 years ago, the pace of innovation in stone technology began to accelerate very slightly. By the beginning of this time, handaxes were made with exquisite craftsmanship, and eventually gave way to smaller, more diverse toolkits, with an emphasis on flake tools rather than larger core tools. These toolkits were established by at least 285,000 years in some parts of Africa, and by 250,000-200,000 years in Europe and parts of western Asia.

One of the main innovations was the application of ‘prepared core technique,’ in which a core was carefully flaked on one side so that for a flake of predetermined size and shape could be produced in a single blow. This technique probably raised the level of standardization and predictability in stone technology.

Middle Stone Age toolkits included points, which could be hafted on to shafts to make spears. When smaller points were made, eventually, they could be attached to smaller, sleeker shafts to make darts, arrows, and other projectile weapons. Stone awls, which could have been used to perforate hides, and scrapers that were useful in preparing hide, wood, and other materials, were also typical tools of the Middle Stone Age.

Here, the term ‘Middle Stone Age’ includes a variety of toolkits from Africa and also the toolkits usually referred to as the Middle Paleolithic in Europe. These toolkits last until at least 50,000 to 28,000 years ago. In Africa, the Middle Stone Age toolkits sometimes include blades and other types of archeological evidence (beads and artifacts that indicate the use of color and symbols) that are typical of the Upper Paleolithic in Europe.







Bronze Age
Entering the Bronze Age, people began to add lead and tin into copper to make the alloy Bronze and slowly, stone weapons declined. As early as the Warring States Period (476-221 BC), there are records on the casting of wares: different proportions of those three metals could make weapons of varying rigidity and temper. The different alloys making techniques are over 2,000 years old.

The history of weapons exists as long as the history of mankind - from a wooden stick to nuclear and space weapons, from a wheel to jet aircraft, from a stone to laser cannons. If we try to give a quick glance on antique weapons, some of the grand fathers of the modern weapons need to be mentioned here. Spear is one of the oldest tools of men used in hunting and in fights with enemies. The invention was natural step from a wooden stick and added a sharpened tip which was meant to inflict wounds on animals and enemies. Later, when people learned to extract iron, the spear tip was made from iron, and some centuries later even iron axe was attached at the top. When bow was invented it was considered the most powerful weapon of prehistoric times. A bow could reach animals and enemies from a distant range where spear and knives could not reach. Effectively, arrows shot from a bow could kill an enemy before it even approached for the close range battle. Medieval military modified a bow into a crossbow which not only was more powerful, but also more precise. Sword was a modification of a long knife and was designed to be used for protection as well in battles. Today, there are many collectors of antique weapons. Perhaps the most expensive ones and most wanted old weapons are antique flintlocks and sabres from the golden era of pirates. Prices of such old authentic weapons range from thousands to hundreds of thousand dollars.
