There isn't a more classic shape in our catalog than the Blackfencer Longsword. It's our second best-selling sword (after the Standard Federschwert), and for good reason. The swelled grip, pinned-through guard, and Blackfencer's specially selected nylon make this the best synthetic longsword you can buy!
Our #1 selling sword! This classic training shape and design of the Blackfencer Federschwert has been around for centuries. The synthetic blade has the same balance, flex, and weight as a thin steel blade. It is also highly durable, with almost no reported failures.
