The Cold Steel CS92BKHNH Hand & A Half Training Sword delivers authentic medieval combat training without the risk of steel blades. This 34-inch training weapon replicates the weight distribution and handling characteristics of historical longswords while maintaining complete safety for sparring and practice sessions.
What Makes This Different
Unlike foam or wooden training swords, this polypropylene construction provides realistic flex and impact resistance that closely mimics steel blade dynamics. The material won't splinter, crack, or develop sharp edges even after intensive training sessions. Cold Steel's injection-molded design maintains consistent balance point and structural integrity that wooden trainers simply cannot match over time.
