Like the longsword these swords are designed so that both the sharp and blunt versions will perform identically in the hand, allowing people to practice with a sword that feels and responds exactly like the 'sharp' that they do cutting with.  Particulars are much like the longsword- marquenched 5160 spring steel blades, dismountable hilt, cord-wrapped leather covered sandwich type hilt etc.
