S.Branson Knives
CUSTOM KNIVES AND SHEATHS
Welcome
As a bladesmith I forge my knives and swords, shaping them with fire, hammer and anvil.
I use high carbon steels and I do all my own heat treating and finish work.
I make all my own sheaths and use only premium quality leather from Wickett and Craig of America.
I hope you enjoy my work.
Thanks.
The Soldier's Sword
In 2012, I was honoured to make a sword as centerpiece for an award for the
Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry.
PPCLI
From the inscription on the back:
"Awarding of the Soldier's Sword
This is a Roman Infantry sword known as a Gladius.
The design of this sword reflects the nature of the close in deadly work of the infantry and recalls the terrible fighting efficiency of the Roman Legions. This Gladius exemplifies the fighting spirit of our Great Regiment.
The Soldier's Sword can be won by any member of the Battalion. In may be awarded for any performance peacetime or any action in wartime that reflects great credit on our Great Regiment.
The Soldier's Sword should be presented on a Battalion Parade as soon as possible after the notable event. The Commanding Officer is the sole Awarding Authority."
