This listing has been REMOVED and is no longer active
Steel diamond schlager blade. Recent purchase, never used or modified except for a light polish. I bought this for a project, but as a blade designed for stage combat, it's slightly more flexible than I'd like in a live sword, though stiffer than a sport fencing sword. It has fairly thick blunt edges and a rounded point about as big as a kidney bean (no button).
Length: 35 inches/88.9cm (blade), 41.25 inches/104.78cm (overall)
Width: Just under 3/4 inch/about 18.75mm at the shoulder, just under 3/8 inch/exactly 9mm at the point.
Thickness: 3/16 inch/4.76mm (shoulder), just over 1/8 inch/3.5mm (point).
Weight: 11.5 ounces/326g.
Point of balance without fittings: About 12.5 inches/31.75cm from shoulder.
There's been some discoloration from being handled, which I've tried to polish out. There is a small sideways streak of grey tarnish that I wasn't able to fully get rid of. No red rust. The surface shows fine grind marks from its original production.
