Hi Richard,

This is a bit of a tough one to answer I think, its not my period at all but I can venture a few comments which will hopefully help you in further research.

Late period spathas and Germanic migration swords would be what you are looking for I think.

Patrick Barta is a smith who has done quite a few pieces from this period and is generally acknowledged as working to a very high historical standard. You may find his website interesting: http://www.templ.net/english/weapons...middle_age.php

Best regards,

Iain
