Long Sword HEMA Adult Foam Fabric (light)

from Go Now
€54,99

This safe long sword made of foam and rubber has been specially designed and produced for training with a high safety aspect for adults. The long sword has an oval handle so that a realistic feeling is created for where the cutting edges of the blade are located. In addition, the blade of the long sword is not round but flat/cornered, so that a feeling for the cutting edges remains here as well. With these long swords, adults can make their first experiences in practice fencing and many forms of games and training in the best possible safety. Supplemented with a fencing mask, very technical and tactical fights and competitions can be organised.
This light version has a weight that is slightly below that of most original long swords. This means that practice fights can be held with little risk of injury. The impact of a blow with this long sword is not as enormous as with the heavy version. This long sword is therefore suitable not only for technique training but also for fast fights with or without a mask.

Very good training sword, not only for beginners

We use the training swords in our club so that beginners can get a feel for sparring without having to buy expensive protective equipment straight away. Even thrusts are possible with the training weapons (to a limited extent). Nobody gets hurt and everybody has fun and can learn something. Since we have "only" used the short swords with round "blades" so far, I wanted to try out the long sword variant. And what can I say: I am thrilled! The length of the swords fits relatively well, the handle lies well and securely in the hand, even when it is sweaty. The guard is robust and withstands blows very well. The flat, angular "blade" gives the weapon a slightly more realistic feel when fighting, which is a big plus. In short, I am absolutely satisfied and can recommend this training weapon to anyone who wants to spar without protective gear. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

A remarkable training weapon

Our club has pretty much stopped lending synthetic weapons to beginners once we realized how much better foam weapons actually were: beginners could actually spar with nothing but a fencing mask and light gloves without being afraid of hurting themselves or their training partners. Experienced fencers also appreciated being able to engage in full-speed sparring during the hottest days of the year. The main drawback remains the stiffness of the blade that prevents thrusting, but a surprisingly high amount of techniques can still be performed with such weapons. This model is a significant improvement over the original Go-Now foam simulators: it features a wide crossguard, an actual pommel, and a flat blade. Having taught tens of beginners with such foam weapons for three years now, I feel confident claiming that this sword is by far one of the best investments a HEMA fencer could make, no matter how new or experienced.

Thanks Adrien! I'm happy to hear that as shop owner and also as school leader and coach who also loves foam weapons as training tool. ;-)
