Our SENTINEL FIORE sparring safe longsword features a slightly shorter slender blade that has 3 central fullers. The blade is flexible, forgiving in the thrust and is intended to be used in normal HEMA training and competition. This model was built to serve fencers of the Fiore style, or fencers who prefer a shorter longsword profile. This sword has a narrowing profile taper that ends in our R4 flattened spatulate tip. The edges are smoothly rounded for durability. The crossguard is exceptionally tough having been hardened and double tempered just as the blade. The grip is comfortably waisted and tightly wrapped in cord that is sealed with resin hardener. It provides a slightly aggresive texture to the cord and feels great in and out of gloves. Choose your pommel style, crossguard style, handle color, and hilt finish.
