Sander, I think you made a good choice, a nice balance between cost, durability and handling.

And it looks very nice. Can you give us a picture of the whole blade?

Sure. I took such a picture last night, but the flash and lack of other light source ruined the picture. I made some new ones.

Nice sword Sander!
Glad to hear you are happy with it. I don't think I've ever heard something negative about durability issues with Pavel Moc's so I think you made a good choice.

That looks a pretty nice sword.
What is the flex on the blade like with a thrust?
How 'pointy' is the point?
Regards,
Dan.

The point is rounded. It's reasonable stiff for a blunt meant for sparring and re-enactment but still safe enough for thrusting. Nobody in my WMA group thought it unsafe for such attacks.
