"Black Fencer" Arming sword

The "Black Fencer" Short Sword Version 4.0 is the result of a close collaboration between the experts at Black Fencer and the HEMA community. This simulator offers a training experience as close as possible to the sensations of a real steel sword, while ensuring an optimal level of safety for practitioners.

Design and materials:

The blade of this short sword is made from a unique nylon alloy, specially developed to faithfully reproduce the characteristics of a steel blade. This innovation allows for remarkable flexibility and strength, while ensuring increased safety during thrusting strikes. The ingenious design of the blade, with flexibility concentrated on the last third, significantly reduces the risk of injury while preserving realistic sensations.

The stainless steel guard and pommel not only provide authentic weight and balance, but also exceptional durability. The tang of the blade is reinforced at the guard by a steel rod, ensuring perfect rigidity of the handle.

Benefits for HEMA practitioners:

This short sword offers an excellent compromise between realism and safety, making it ideal for all levels of practice, from beginner to expert. Its design allows for precise blade work and combat sensations very close to a steel sword, while minimizing the risks of serious injury.

• Monoblock construction for increased strength
• Pommel fixed by a steel rod to prevent any rotation
