Toledo is an imperial city. A walled fortress, where swords and swords are the pride of the city and where it houses a character marked by the forging of metals such as steel, one of the most prestigious and important in the world, which endows and characterizes Toledo swords of elasticity and hardness.

The art of the espadería in Toledo is unique, since the swords manufactured by hand in Toledo are distinguished from other swords because their blades are not made of pure steel, but are formed inside by iron. In addition, Toledo swords contain not only the marks of the espadero or the workshop, but also have a unique ornamentation such as damascene, nickel and engravings.

Today and despite the fact that the Spanish activity at the Toledo Weapons Factory has ended, the Toledo workshops continue to forge swords and continue to craft sabers for Spanish and foreign armies. Therefore, in your visit to Toledo you can take as a souvenir some reproduction of the sabers or swords historically known, such as Alfonso VI, Boabdil, El Cid, Napoleon, King Arturo and Carlos V.
