The Long-Sword is a weapon that has a long double-edged blade and handle long enough for two hands. This larger weapon enabled fighters to make stronger cuts or powerful thrust against their opponent. These swords were in use as early as the 14th century. The length varied between 40" and 48", with 48" being a common length. Authentic steel weapons weigh from 2.5 to 3.5 lbs. (1.1 to 1.6kg)

Hardwood Swords
Purchased two hardwood swords as Christmas gifts for my son to practice for HEMA. They look great. Right after opening the box we practiced with them and they work well.

Exceeds expectations
These days I'm pretty cynical when ordering stuff online, I'm used to getting cheap flimsy stuff and I half expected this to be a shaky fragile sword.

I only wish shipping was a bit faster, but it wasn't terrible I guess. You

Better Sword Than Service
I'm pleased with the product. However, it took far too long to arrive. My postman asked me to deliver this message: "Tell them they're idiots. They left the street address out, so it took us far longer and much more effort to get it to you." Should I choose to order more in bulk, as previously discussed, this cannot occur again.

My first waster.
I've done HEMA for years, but always made my own wasters, which was good enough since I mostly use steel anyway. But these are well-balanced, tough, and a joy to flourish with, hit the pell, and don't tear up my punching bags like the aforementioned steel blades. These are well made and I'm glad I got them.
