Description
Our Small Feder Blade is a special robust offering meant to fulfill the need for a universal affordable single handed training blade. It features a flat ground, narrow distal taper with a schilted forte. This makes the blade feel wide at its base and offers some protection for “Thumb Over” styles while keeping the overall weight down. This design also allows the added benefit of a very thick and rounded edge of 4mm. Our blades are made from high quality 5160 spring steel bar stock tempered to the optimal point where maximum toughness & durability meets hardness, 50 HRC. These blades have a polished finish and the flex is centered in the tip third of the blade. Great for SCA Cut & Thrust, HEMA and WMA combat.
These blades are offered in a blade lengths of 32″, 34″ and 36″ measured from the tang shoulder to the tip. This measurement would include the ricasso section if used in conjunction with a guard that offers that feature. The 5.75″ tang length will specifically work with current BBS economy basket hilts and BBS arming swords.
We also offer these blades with 2 levels of flex stiffness catering to your desired combat discipline: SCA Crossover Rapier/C&T and HEMA Flex (F3) & C&T and HEMA Flex (F4).
SCA Crossover Rapier/C&T and HEMA Flex (F3)- Medium heavy stiffness, compliant to SCA Rapier and Cut & Thrust calibration. 1″ – 1.5″ drop @ 6 oz. (170 gr). Recommended flex for SCA Rapier and Cut & Thrust dual duty, WMA and HEMA armored combat.
C&T and HEMA Flex (F4)- High stiffness, compliant to SCA Cut & Thrust and HEMA calibration. .5″ – .75″ drop @ 6 oz. (170 gr). Recommended for SCA Cut & Thrust and HEMA armored combat only.
