"Very good training sword. Solid, good heft and looks to survive almost any number of training sessions in the years ahead." - Paul (5/5)

"Now my favorite practice sword, I bought two since it's best to use these as matched pairs. The aesthetics are great compared to other brand of training swords. Often synthetic training swords are too floppy on the flats and this makes play at the sword hard to do, the cross section of this practice sword helps a great deal in feeling if one has good edge alignment. These are the closest in feel to steel practice sword in feel in my opinion, as with steel one feels the difference between contact and pressure on the flats versus contact with the edges, wooden wasters are rigid with zero flex. NOTE: One small flaw easy to correct is that the point out of the box is pointy enough to do some damage and even scratch bare skin, but that was easy to fix by sanding and rounding the tip a little. These are the practice longswords I currently like the best and use with my training partner." - Jean (5/5)

"Looks great, the hilt is very well textured and grippy. Weighs about two thirds of a steel sword. The blade is a bit thick as a result, but the balance is excellent." - Chris (4/5)

"Product is as advertised and durable. Great for training speed and form on your own/on a dummy, should never be used for sparring without proper protective gear and instructor supervision. The tip is still sharp enough to easily punch through dry wall and the trainer can still transfer enough force to injure if no gear is used in light to medium sparring environment." - Henry (4/5)

"A great looking sword. Great for practicing and cosplay. " - Heidi (5/5)

"My son loves the size, weight and design of his practice sword." - Lisa (5/5)

"Much more "sword" like than the cold steel trainers. Feels lighter in hand and more maneuverable. Not as bulky in the "blade" section however the balance point is about the same as the cold steel short sword trainer. Again great for what it is." - Jon (5/5)

"The weight and shape of the sword is perfect. The sword can take a bit of a beating, but due to how the sword is angled, it will get dents quite often. The tip is also pretty pointy, which can be dangerous for practice, not hard to modify on your own though." - Ahmad (3/5)
