FREIFECHTER

* Every our blade are checked few times during production to avoid mistakes. We give 1 year warranty for breakage not every bend. We can also replace sword which bend on first use/sparring (and I do that without a problem) but after few months of using and sparring minor  bendings are normal thing when forces are to big.  We can make it straight in our workshop, but we do not cover shiping cost. Frankly it is a minute of work and 80 % chances to finish it with foot on the floor. Straightening the blades are common on every sport fencing training:

*FLEX we measure blade stifness in regular buckling test by pushing on the pommel on a scale, based on FEDER Polish HEMA Federation Ruleset.

“GOOD FENCING” TIPS:

1.  Learn to properly thrust with feder and use its blade flexibility – hands up when you hitting.
2.  Cut with proper edge alignment and avoid full force cuts to rigid targets – like Strong of partner blade/crossguard – if he parries your Weak applying force to his Strong does not work for you, only destroys your blade.
3.  Avoid charging to each other in sparring – it may easily  generate huge forces which can bend the blade.
