Cold Steel Polypropylene Training Dagger-20"

The best of the world's sword fighters have known a simple truth for ages... if you want to become a reasonably good sword fighter you should endeavor to learn sword fighting techniques, footwork and the basic stances

However, if you want to be a master at sword fighting you have to eventually start fighting with a "live blade"

If your ultimate goal is to wield a razor sharp sword safely and effectively, you need to train with a sword that approximates the size, feel and heft of a live blade, yet minimizes the possibility of causing grievous, permanent, or life-threatening injury to yourself or your training partner

This concept was implemented by the ancient Romans, who used dull wooden swords to train their Gladiators and soldiers

Japanese Samurai used a wooden training sword that was called a Bokken. It's an elegant solution to a vexing problem and effective enough to still be used today

The only problem is that a wooden sword can rot, crack, chip or splinter and eventually become useless

Cold Steel's solution to these dilemmas was to design a synthetic substitute, low in price and impervious to the elements

The Cold Steel line of Training Weapons are made of heaviest grade polypropylene available and closely duplicate a real sword in length, size, weight and feel

While they're not quite as rigid as wood, they have the winning advantages of being virtually unbreakable, remarkably stiff and cut resistant
