Wushu Competition Broadsword (Wushu Dao)

The international governing body for Chinese Martial Arts competition, the International Wushu Federation (IWuF), has established standards for swords in competition. This line of Competition Swords meets those standards. These swords represent the "top of the line" for competition swords. The hollow-ground blade design strengthens the spine of the blade while keeping the tip flexible. This makes for a light, yet sturdy weapon with a balance that's ideal for competition or every day practice. Each weapon comes with a special tag that certifies that they have met the rigorous new standards for competition. Broadswords use a flattened-triangle blade design. Comes in multiple sizes for a perfect fit. Please note that this weapon is for competition, practice and performance only, not for actual combat.
