Testing:
The blades used for this sword are 3/16 inch high-carbon spring steel with a hefty Full Tang. Tested on several 2x4 boards standing up. The boards were split with no marring on the sword blade. Then tested on 2x4 board cutting cross-ways resting on each side of the board on solid rests and striking straight down. Although the sword did not cut completely through, it did cut deep and again did not mar the blade or edge. The final test was 9 good blows, it nicked the blade as was expected, but did not break the blade not break the tang or handle in either of these tests.

Sword Cleaning Instructions Regular use of sword cleaning kits to maintain high carbon steel swords helps prevent deterioration. (Initial cleaning of this sword is needed to remove protective coating.)

Manufacturers Note: Blades made of 3/16-inch tempered steel are designed to be slightly more ridged than thin spring steel blades (whippy blades) from other manufacturers. This is not a defect, but by design to allow for a difference in blade control during swordplay, etc. Never flex stress test 3/16-inch tempered steel blades beyond 5 or 6 inches. (All testing is a buyer liability.) Due to the length of this item, it ships at the UPS Oversize Rate.
