    This high-impact plastic sparring sword is designed with flexibility near the tip. This makes thrusting attacks safer than standard wooden wasters. A high tensile steel rod is within the handle, keeping handle flex to a minimum. The handle is covered in a rubber-like thermoplastic that absorbs impact and gives a better grip. These practice swords can be taken apart by unscrewing the brass nut within the pommel. This allows for easy transport or customization. It weighs about 2/3 of the weight of a real longsword, and the weight is kept back, towards the hilt to make for safer sparring.

    For HEMA, this product has been classified as either appropriate for all skill levels or appropriate for those with Advanced Skills. Michael Turner, instructor at Tuathair Academy of Martial Arts, assisted us in categorizing these items for the different skill levels of HEMA participants. These categorizations are meant as guidelines. Please refer to tournament rules for specific competition requirements. For this purpose, we do not include swords that may be used in cutting competitions in the HEMA category.

    Not just for training, these safety training swords are good for theatrical combat. Designed by practitioners of the Historical European Martial Arts community.
