Lots of baked, crusty, almost dry sword ideas: light sabers, paintball, ice, wood, fiberglass, etc., etc. All move from a heavy, solid 'knights of the round table' sword to a light, video game-like one.
If we could get big, heavy sword fights and keep the bruises but not do permanent damage, more
people would sword fight.
There should be a sword that:
1. Clangs no matter how hard you slam it into another sword, and can spark.
2. Does not cut off appendages.
Gauntlets, a neck guard and goggles are a must. But the sword needs to not cut off an unprotected arm or a hand.
I'm not sure how, perhaps shape-memory metals that can soften? Or how table saws can stop the blade with PVC if a hand touches them? A dull edge is OK... any ideas??
Sword fights aplenty

//I'm not sure how// umm... that's sorta the point of posting... meanwhile... "clubs ?". |

Yeah there are lots of clubs where people do this kind of thing. |

this is less of "new take" and more of an "old want". Wouldn't it be nice if someone could tell me how to have X. PLEASE! Maybe if you better described the context for the "sword fights" inspiring interest and creativity. Or see my link. |
