This is not a Buhurt sword, but a HEMA sword for fighting in armour.
They are only thrusting in armour weakpoints.
No strikes, its very stiff.
so its not a typical Feder.
I think the tip is to skinny to be legal in Buhurt as well.

Harnis sword
Great weight and balance. I’d love to see future options for guards and pommels.

Excellent for fighting in harness
Just as described, this sword is very stiff. It works very well for leveraging and fighting in half sword. The grip is comfortable. Overall it looks great in the lists!

Incredible Product!
This sword not only looks amazing, it feels amazing too. Its got incredible balance and weight, and the grip on it is great in your hand. As happens sometimes, there was a small amount of rust on the Pommel and Crossguard, however I was able to clear it up with some elbow grease, polish and oil.
