Most of the broadswords below can be purchased with either the "archer", "single-hand" or "hand-and-a-half" fight-worthy blades. Follow the highlighted link for a full explanation of blade choices.

("what kind of blade do I need?") blade choices

[FYI: The aforementioned blades all have one slight drawback - no one is making them anymore. We'll keep providing weapons so long as we have the blades. But unless we can find a supplier that can make something we can trust to put in your hands we are limited to what we have in stock.  [More information if you wish] ]

All of the Swordcrafters (shown with the lion, armed) broadswords are now sold with wooden handles, not the plastic that is shown on some of these photos. The Han Wei  sword handles are plastic.

470 - NORMAN - made by CAS Hanwei of China, this is a fully practical single-hand sword. As with all Hanwei swords, the blade is fused onto the pommel, so there is no variation possible on the blade. 2½ lb total weight,  36" overall length.   5" wide steel guard, the blade is 30" long and 1½" wide.   fight-ready and includes scabbard.  $96
