admin_imw — Fri, 06 May 2022 23:06:27 +0000

The tip of a fencing sword can easily slide between the fencing mask bib and gambeson during a thrust, potentially leading to a quite serious injury. This throat protector, when worn as a complete set with proper gambeson and mask will help to protect the front and sides of the neck in such a scenario. Features plastic insert padded for comfort. Black fabric covering with Red Dragon logo. Hook and loop fasteners and an elastic band for ease of use and a wide range of adjustability. One size fits all, child to adult. A must have piece of safety equipment for the modern HEMA fencer. Bulk packed.

Sparring Longsword

admin_imw — Fri, 06 May 2022 23:06:27 +0000

Xtreme Synthetic Series. 48 1/2'' overall. 38'' white blade. Black guard and scent stopper pommel. Black handle. Developed in conjunction with Dave Rawlings, founder of the London Longsword Academy and the HEMA (Historical European Martial Arts) community. Crafted with special-purpose, reinforced high-impact polymer. A safe alternative for steel blade swords. The blades are designed to flex in the last one-third of their length towards the tip, allowing for much safer thrusting than with conventional wooden wasters or shinai. The blade/tang joint is reinforced by a high tensile steel rod running along the full length of the handle, removing the handle flex typically associated with plastic training swords. The grips are manufactured from a rubber-like thermoplastic elastomer, designed to absorb the impact of strikes and to provide a tight fit on the tangs. These swords are about two-thirds of the weight of a steel-bladed sword, heavier than most wooden wasters on the market but still having less impact than a steel sword, thus lowering the impact when sparring. A key feature of the swords is their ease of assembly and disassembly, making for easy transport. A brass nut is molded into the pommel, providing a tight metal on metal joint to the tang and compressing the slide-on grip against the guard. An excellent, safe option for theatrical use. NOTE: Specs may vary slightly from piece to piece.
