Basket Hilt Xtreme Sparring Sword |
|
The latest addition to the synthetic range has been designed and tested in conjunction with English Martial Arts Academy. The fantastic price makes them a must for all backsword practitioners, allowing for greater levels of intensity during sparring and in the tournament arena.
It is great for practicing techniques from George Silver and Highland Broadsword fighting manuals.
The sword blade is the standard Rawlings Xtreme Single Hand Blade and is compatible with all Rawlings Single Hand Sword fittings.

Rawlings Xtreme Synthetic Sparring Single Hand Blade |
Points: 2
|
Fits Rawlings Xtreme Synthetic Sparring Single Hand Sword.
Our blades are designed to flex in the last 1/3 of their length towards the tip allowing for much safer thrusting than with conventional wooden wasters or shinai. The blade/tang joint (traditionally a weak point) is reinforced by a high tensile steel rod running along the full length of the handle. This also removes any flex in the handle traditionally associated with plastic training swords.
They are manufactured from our own special blend of plastic to provide strong and flexible sparring blade. They are designed to be used with low/medium protection (we recommend a fencing mask, stiff throat protector, fencing coach's jacket and decent lacrosse gloves). Please use responsibly.

Rawlings Synthetic Single Hand Sword Guard |
|
A lot of time and went into the design of these guards. The balance between safety, durability and aesthetics is hard to achieve. They are based on an original 15th century historical design - the balls on the end of the quillons allow for a much safer guard with little risk of impalement.
They are manufactured from a very tough plastic which provides a good balance between impact and flexural strength. However, they are plastic and not steel and will break under less pressure than there metal counterparts.
If you desire a stronger/heavier guard, we recommend you purchase a Pro-Line Stainless Steel Guard.

Rawlings Synthetic Wheel Pommel |
|
As testament to the country of manufacture we went for an Oakeshott J1 style pommel often found on English swords. It is made from a special blend of plastic and powdered metal to increase the weight beyond what is achievable with plastic alone. The threaded brass "supertorque" insert offers much better purchase than conventional inserts allowing for a tight fit.

Rawlings Synthetic ``Scent Stopper`` Pommel |
|
Our “scent stopper” pommel is classified as an Oakeshott T5 and is quite a complex object to mould. It is made from a special blend of plastic and powdered metal to increase the weight beyond what is achievable with plastic alone. The threaded brass "supertorque" insert offers much better purchase than conventional inserts allowing for a tight fit. Should you require a heavier pommel please see our Pro-Line Stainless Steel Pommel.

Rawlings Synthetic Extended Pommel (RDA001EP) |
|
Our Extended Pommel is twice as long as our standard scent-stopper pommels giving an extra 6.5cm of grip. This allows for the bulkiest of padded gloves and provides a lot of extra torque in the blade!
The Extended Pommel will convert your single hand sword into a Bastard sword and give your Longsword blade an extra long grip. It is made from a special blend of plastic and powdered metal to increase the weight beyond what is achievable with plastic alone. The threaded brass "supertorque" insert offers much better purchase than conventional inserts allowing for a tight fit.

Rawlings Pro-Line Stainless Steel Pommel |
|
The Stainless Steel Pommels are a fantastic addition to the Pro-Line range. They are particularly good when used on a Single Hand Xtreme Blade making for a authentically weighted, fast moving sword.
When used in conjunction with an Xtreme Longsword Blade it brings the weight of the sword up to 1165g with a 1" POB.
If used in combination with Pro-Line Stainless Steel Guard it brings the weight of the sword up to 1465g with a POB at the guard.

Rawlings Synthetic Single Hand Grip |
|
Our grips are manufactured from a rubber-like thermoplastic elastomer designed to absorb the impact of strikes as they are transmitted along the blade. They are designed to slide off the Sword's tang with relative ease and will compress for a tight fit.

Red Dragon Weapon Sparring Gloves |

Red Dragon Knee & Shin Protectors (AMK13) |
Points: 2
|
Offering some of the best protection and mobility on the market, our Knee and Shin Protectors are so well articulated you hardly know that you are wearing them. Unlike other leg protectors, ours articulate "with" the knee rather than restrict movement and most importantly offer side protection for the knee which is lacking on most of the protectors that are currently used.
