Trivia

  • Historically, the Schiavona was a late form of broadsword developed during the 16th century. Its use grew quite popularly over the next few decades, and the Schiavona and other basket-hilted swords of its kind were wielded extensively throughout Renaissance Italy.
  • The name descends from their use by the Balkan mercenaries who served as bodyguards to the Doge of Venice. The mercenary groups consisted largely of Istrian and Dalmatian Slavs, known under the term Schiavoni, hence the name.
  • The schiavona could be obtained in Assassin's Creed: Revelations through Uplay.
