As testament to the country of manufacture we went for an Oakeshott J1 style pommel often found on English swords. It is made from a special blend of plastic and powdered metal to increase the weight beyond what is achievable with plastic alone. The threaded brass "supertorque" insert offers much better purchase than conventional inserts allowing for a tight fit. Designed & Manufactured in the U.K.

Designed to fit our complete range Red Dragon HEMA Synthetic Blades.

Our Red Dragon HEMA Synthetic Single Hand Blades are manufactured from our own special blend of plastic to provide strong and flexible sparring blade. They are designed to flex along the last 1/3 of their length towards the tip allowing for much safer thrusting than with conventional wooden wasters or shinai. The blade/tang joint (traditionally a weak point) is reinforced by a high tensile steel rod running along the full length of the handle. This also removes any flex in the handle traditionally associated with plastic training swords. The edges are left smooth to prevent friction burns but can be roughened with sandpaper for a better bind.
