HEMA

A lot of time and effort went into the design of these guards. A balance between safety, durability and aesthetics is hard to achieve. They are based on an original 15th century historical design. The balls on the end of the quillons allow for a much safer guard with little risk of impalement.

They are manufactured from a very tough plastic which provides a good balance between impact and flexural strength. However, they are plastic and not steel and will break under less pressure than their metal counterparts. If you desire a stronger/heavier guard, we recommend that you purchase a Red Dragon HEMA Stainless Steel Longsword Guard. Designed and Manufactured in the U.K.
