I'm bad with estimating measurements, but I'm about 5 foot 9 and it reaches from tip to tip to just above my tummy.<BR/><BR/>My current practice sword about 3.5 lbs of wood. The steels I am told weigh somewhat more than that, but feel less because of superior balance.<BR/><BR/>I've used the sword one-handed. It is possible, but it's definitely more awkward. The cuts are clumsier.<BR/><BR/>I don't wear armor yet. The swords we use for training are blunts. We are currently making our armor for sharps - don't expect to be at that stage of training until much much later.Anthonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16404874584727768253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12118472.post-23333817179895306222007-04-14T12:04:00.000+08:002007-04-14T12:04:00.000+08:00Sure thing.That will be great.How heavy is the swo...Sure thing.<BR/><BR/>That will be great.<BR/><BR/>How heavy is the sword?
