A lot of folks have asked me about the new Rawlings synthetic broadswords. As you can see, they allow for a style of fast, energetic broadsword fencing without much gear. With wooden wasters, we would have needed to go about half as fast as this, or wear a lot more equipment. They are flexible to the point of being a little bit "droopy," but that's exactly what a lot of old Highland broadswords were like, so it's a plus as far as we're concerned. These are available in the US from woodenswords.com.
