Product Description

If your ultimate goal is to wield a sharp blade safely and effectively, you need to supplement your training with a tool that approximates the size, feel and heft of a blade, yet minimizes the possibility of causing grievous, permanent injury to yourself or your training partner. This concept was implemented by many cultures, including the ancient Romans, who used wooden swords to train their Gladiators.

To truly master sword work, it's crucial to train with a safe, non-sharp trainer blade that closely approximates the weight and feel of the real thing. This simple concept hails to ancient Roman times, when gladiators and soldiers practiced with dull wooden swords. Japanese Samurai, too, used wooden training swords called Bokken.

Creative cutlery company Cold Steel has modernized this concept with a line of synthetic training swords that won't rot, crack, chip, or splinter. Made of heavy-duty polypropylene, these trainers closely duplicate real swords in size, weight, and feel, and are both safe for novice use and virtually unbreakable.
