We will use extra glue to hold tight the grip, pommel, and nut. It will not unscrew without extra heat applied to the pommel. This creates a stronger solid blade. But limited options for swapping out the blade later.

Great sword, great price
I read that this sword was the Honda Civic of swords not too flashy, but reliable as heck. It's definitely lived up to that.

Fantastic Experience
The purple heart crew is the best. I have 0 complaints. They went out of their way several times to help me out. The sword is awesome and it arrived in 3 weeks. I couldnt be happier. I will be ordering more swords in the future.

The Honda Civic of longsword feders
This feder does everything well enough and has no significant weaknesses. It's not a super premium custom feder that most heavily invested longsword fencers might purchase - but I was able to "win out" in my pools at a competitive Tier A tournament with mine.Perfect option for someone who isn't sure what they want or don't want in a feder, but wants good quality and all the basics covered.

Fantastic Starter Feder
This is a great entry option for those who want to upgrade to steel. I took this to a novice level tournament recently and got a bronze medal with it. It also arrived within a week. Only issue I have is the pommel will start to unscrew during use sometimes, but it has never come off during practice or matches for me.
