Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Most of our functional swords come sharpened or have a sharpening service available and are fully capable of cutting sword targets such as tatami mats, bottles, or pool noodles. Some models can also be ordered unsharpened for safe martial arts practice or display.

Most functional swords are made from high-carbon steels such as 5160, 1060, or numerous 10xx carbon steels. These steels are heat-treated for the right balance of hardness and flexibility, allowing them to withstand the rigors of real cutting practice.

Yes, functional swords are legal to own in most areas across Canada and the United States. However, laws can vary by province or state, so it’s always best to check your local regulations regarding transport, public carry, and import restrictions.

A battle-ready sword (or functional sword) is forged from high-carbon steel with a full tang and properly heat-treated for strength. These are made for cutting and martial training. Decorative swords, by contrast, are made for display only and are not heat-treated or balanced for real use.

Yes, many functional swords can be used for stage combat when properly maintained and inspected before use. Always ensure that blunted or unsharpened versions are used, proper safety equipment is worn and you have received proper instruction for choreographed performances to maintain safety for all participants.
