Ultra High-End Foam Boffer Sword for Recreation or LARP

Mercenaries always seem to have that touch of the exotic to them. Perhaps it's because they travel from land to land searching for work, picking up hints of the local fashion and hardware as they go. Maybe it's part of an elaborate mind-freak, intended to intimidate their opponents. Or maybe mercenaries just have a better fashion sense than your average killers. Whatever the reason, mercenaries tend to have a flair of the unique about them, and this sword is no different.

The subtle flash of this sword comes from its angled crossguards. They start fairly straigh and standard, but then they jerk downward and flare shrewdly. The guard scrams to the world "hey, don't mess with me. I know what I'm doing." Really. I've heard it say that very thing to me several times. It also asked me for a roast beef sandwich once, and repeatedly asks me to download photos of Kylie Minogue. Otherwise, the sword is a kick-ass piece of hardware for any warrior to hold (hmmm ... I guess that holds true for Kylie Minogue, too).

The Grip, like those on all of our latex swords is cored by ergonomic carbon fiber, surrounded by multidensity foam and carbon structural supports, and topped with a comfortable suede wrap.

This sword is ideal for anyone who plays a slightly mysterious, powerful warrior or traveler. Excellent for theatrical use or just plain recreational pummeling.

About Strongblade's Latex Swords and Daggers
In every industry, there is one company that towers above all others. Among weapon vendors, that company of course is Strongblade.com =D. But among makers of latex swords and daggers / foam swords and daggers, our manufacturer is without question the best in the world. The company, based in Scandanavia, is responsible for pushing the envelope in technology, aesthetics and safety.

Once one of these weapons is designed, it is put through a minimum of six months of testing and refining before it is allowed to hit the market. These tests include moderate and extreme stress simulations, field testing, and SAT tests to ensure that the sword can get into a good college (lawyer's note: That last one is categorically not true. The weapons ocassionally take the ACT tests, not SATs, and it is not a requirement of these tests)(editor's note: Our writer has gone insane. He is impersonating a lawyer and writing about swords going to college. Please ignore him. These weapons cannot take academic tests).

Our manufacturer pioneered the use of round carbon-fiber cores in the mass-market, a technology that makes their sword astoundingly strong, flexible and springy. The cores feature special structural reinforcements around pressure areas like the joint between guard and blade. This prevents the weapon from breaking or folding at areas of high stress.

Our manufacturer uses a proprietary multi-density foam. This last, complex sounding sentence means that they use a small layer of dense foam around the core and a larger, softer layer of foam to make the shape of the weapon. This makes for a very safe weapon that can withstand incredible amounts of punishment. This also makes for a unique sword amongst the sea of other manufacturers who simply cast a mold, fill it with one layer of lower quality foam and call it a day.

These weapons feature another design feature unique to them: A Vari-flex Tip design. This is a design feature in the tip that allows them to bend gradually rather than abruptly. Doing this prevents stress on the tip and makes it almost impossible to cause creasing or weak spots that could lead to breaks.

I could go on and on. And come to think of it, I will for one more paragraph, because I forgot to mention the proprietary paint used on these weapons. Our manufacturer uses a revolutionary painting technique on these weapons that is engineered to reflect light exactly as real metal would. The paint is also designed to protect the weapon, providing a strong barrier that stretches slightly with each flex.

If you don't get the idea by now, we're very excited to be offering these weapons. At Strongblade, we prefer to sell the products that we manufacture; this ensures that what we sell is up to our standards. So, when we decide to sell another company's products, its most likely because that company is the best in the industry. This is clearly true of these swords. Buy these weapons and you are buying the highest quality latex weapon that we have ever seen.
