DESCRIPTION:

Product is a pair of custom designed Butterfly Swords, made by hand. All measurements and weights approximate.

These were designed by Modell Design LLC to the specifications of a Michigan William Cheung lineage Sifu who wanted to capture the feel of a pair of expensive full custom knives. They are outstanding ultra-fast stabbers for outside measure Wing Chun professionals. Our supply is from the first run, made from Bohler 440C weapons grade stainless steel polished to a see yourself glossy finish.

Here are a few things that make these weapons superior to a lot of your purchase alternatives:

*Excellent value/price ratio
*The D Guard is solidly affixed to the tang (we really care).
*Weapons-grade stainless steel, imported from Germany (Bohler 440C type) on these first run swords. Later runs may use a less expensive steel that is still better than what most other folks use on BJD.
*Our knives are professionally heat treated because we understand that one of the major knife industry problems is manufacturers doing a lousy heat treatment to save costs. A great blade steel without a good heat treatment is swill. These knives are approximately HRC 58.
*Wide hollow grind. Tough to do but looks great, a feature frequently requested on expensive full custom butterfly swords.
*Excellent traditional point of balance (NOT a forward point of balance for lineages that prefer machete style)
*Comfortable full handle yet still able to fit two swords in one sheath
*Ergonomic handle
*Humidity resistant handle material (a laminated resin/glue treated wood product that still expands and contracts, but not as much as cheap Chinese sword wood)
*Total weight is light for a weapons-grade Butterfly Sword
* Excellent balance plus light weight = fast knives.

We do not make any swords for weapon vs. weapon training or cutting exercises. These are especially unsuitable due to the hollow grind and use of stainless rather than carbon steel.
