Sharp, not quite traditional
By Mark J. Urbin
I have these Butterfly swords. They are solid, well balanced, and very sharp.As noted in one of the other reviews, traditionally, the lower third of the blade was not sharpened. That allowed it be used for blocking without damaging the edge and to deliver "less than lethal" blows using that section of the blade.These swords are quite sharp all along that edge of the blade. So if you are using them in practice combat, you have to be careful not to injure your training partner, and not to damage the edge of the blade when blocking with the sharp edge of the blade.I obtained these after months of training with dull practice blades, and I strongly recommend that to anyone considering purchasing these blades. The practice set I used were made from steel, not aluminum. They are actually heavier than than the live Cold Steel blades. I consider that a feature. After practicing with the heavier weapons, the live blades felt light and I was able to move them about faster.The D ring guards on these swords are sturdy enough to provide protection and double as "brass knuckles" for in close work were you want a "less than lethal" strike.The leather sheath is of comparable quality to the weapons. Very sturdy and holds the blades snug, but not overly tight. Keep in mind that you do not want to store steel blades in a leather scabbard long term. Take the blades out on regular basis to clean them and apply a light coating of oil to protect the blades.

By Nicholas Bolin
decently sharp out of the box, strong blades, good finish.the handle wrap is done well and stylish. the brass fittings are well polished, with no pitting, or errors on the machining end. the scabbard holds the blades snugly when you're storing them, and is of a good quality leather that is also finished nicely. both the swords, and the scabbard are of very good quality. i might like to make them a bit sharper, but even fresh, they will destroy cardboard with ease, take care not to hurt yourself, because they definitely aren't dull.
