Red Dragon Armoury Sparring Sword - Black Blade with Red Hilt

The Rawlings single hand synthetic sparring sword features blades designed to flex in the last one-third of their length towards the tip, allowing for safer thrusting than with conventional wooden wasters or shinai. High tensile steel rods reinforce the blade/tang joint along the full length of the handle, eliminating the handle flex typically associated with plastic training swords. These synthetic-bladed swords are also a safer option for theatrical use compared to steel or aluminum. Red Dragon offers a variety of interchangeable parts, providing an economical means to create different sword styles on a single blade. The ball-shaped Quilon finials and rounded pommels of the longsword and single-hand sword prioritize sparring safety, as do the pommel and basket of the basket-hilt sword. The grips are made from a rubber-like thermoplastic elastomer, designed to absorb strike impact and provide a tight fit on the tangs. Overall, the sword has a 41.5" blade length, 34" handle length, 4.5" weight, 1lb 9oz point of balance, and originates from the United Kingdom. The item package dimensions are 11.43 L x 11.43 W x 124.46 H (cm), with a package weight of 1.065 kgs, and the product type is sporting goods.
