Description
Inspired by the popular longswords from the 14th and 15th centuries, the Black Fencer synthetic longsword incorporates all the important qualities relative to the weight, balance, and mass dynamics of a steel sword, keeping also the flexibility qualities for a training sword, and maintaining the safety of the nylon material, so we can practise historical fencing with proper force and intent, without padding up too heavily.
