Wide blade military Sabre made for Purpleheart Armoury by VB in Hungary.

With the current bell guard, some larger gloves will not work with this sword.

- Does not work with SPES Heavies or Red Dragon #13.
- Works Our rapier/singlestick or thinner gloves.

Future V6
- A larger grip.
V5 - We have done lots of prototypes over the last year to get this right.

Sabers
It isn't the best but it is affordable. It's heavy, the point of balance makes it awkward to use. However, the price point is fantastic and with enough practice it can do most of what you need it to do. I don't love it but I definitely don't hate it either.

Almost great.
It's good but the balance is about 7 3/4 instead of 5 3/4. Those 2 inches make a difference.

V5 MILITARY Saber
Absolutely solid, well balanced, and lively, but be aware that most HEMA duelling sabers are considerably lighter and somewhat longer (see the Gymnasium Saber). This is great against arming swords or messers. Fun with sword and buckler. Has enough curve to be useful, but not so much that you need to relearn anything. Suitable for "thumb up" grip.Been beating the snot out of it for 10 month

Good sword
This was a Christmas/Birthday gift for my husband. He showed me what he wanted and it was delivered in a timely manner. Flex is on stiffer side but is good, hilt fits a sparring glove mittens but won’t fit spes heavies or black knights (which are unnecessary with this hilt anyway). The blade is nimble and powerful in the cut. He is very happy with it.
