Indian Composite Piece For Comment

Radligh, you are welcome. My knowledge of training weapons is close to nothing, but my guess is that the ‘blade’ would have been a hard wood rod. With a hard wood ‘bade’ you could, during the training hurt your opponent quite a lot, but had the ‘blade’ been a rod of steel, you might kill him – and that is not really the idea of a training match – is it? Besides, such a ‘blade’ would be easy to change if it broke.

Try to ask the one who sent you a PM what he thinks, as he may know quite a lot more about the subject than I do, and may have better answers.

Jens
