Sources from the second half of 15th c. contain a lot of information about arming of mercenaries of Kingdom of Poland. Those materials are located in the Central Archives of Historical Records in Warsaw. Those are mostly lists of taken soldiers with weapons and also lists of weapons lost during war campaigns. Mentions about blade weapon are found in records from the period of the Thirteen Years’ War with Teutonic Order (1454-1466). Most of the information concerns infantry, only in records from 1471, 1880 soldiers were recorded to have been using blade weapon. According to the analysis, the most popular blade weapons were swords – used by 51% of infantryman. Slightly fewer was the number of used sabers – 47% of soldiers used them in 1471.
