The Kingston Arms Sport Feather Sword is aimed at clubs, beginners and even experienced practitioners looking for a lightweight, fast, safe and affordable sparring sword for HEMA longsword training.

This feather sword was designed to be safe in the stab: the last third of the blade is flexible, while the rest of the sword remains relatively rigid. The tip is also slightly widened and can be used as is with appropriate protective equipment or can also be equipped with a leather cap or plastic tip for even more safety.

Additional features include a beveled thumb guard that allows the gloved thumb to be easily placed on and off the blade during protective transitions. The wooden handle has a rounded, rectangular cross-section and is tightly wrapped with a cord to ensure a secure hold.

The above specifications may vary slightly from copy to copy.
