Blade Integrity and Warranty

Every blade we produce is thoroughly checked multiple times during production to ensure quality and avoid mistakes. We provide a 1-year warranty for breakage, but not for every bend. We can replace a sword that bends during its first use or sparring session without any issues. However, after a few months of use and sparring, minor bends are normal when subjected to significant forces. While we can straighten the blade in our workshop, we do not cover the shipping costs. Straightening a blade is a quick process and can often be done with a simple technique at home, such as applying pressure with your foot.

Blade Flexibility (FLEX)

We measure blade stiffness using a regular poprzez wyboczenie by applying pressure on the pommel on a scale, based on the Regulamin Polskiej Federacji DESW - FEDER

“GOOD FENCING” TIPS:

• Learn to properly thrust with a feder and utilize its blade flexibility – keep your hands up when thrusting.
• Cut with proper edge alignment and avoid full-force cuts to rigid targets, such as the strong part of your partner’s blade or crossguard. If your opponent parries with the strong part of their blade, applying force to it with your weak part will not be effective and will only damage your blade.
• Avoid charging at each other during sparring – this can generate huge forces that may bend the blade.
