The Ace Martial Arts Master Chinese Tai Chi Practice Sword is a good option for those looking to practice Tai Chi sword techniques. The blade appears to be made of polished steel and has some flexibility, which is ideal for Tai Chi practice. While the edges and point are somewhat sharp, the sword is not intended for combat but rather for Tai Chi practice. The handle and scabbard are made of high impact plastic and feel comfortable in the hand. Overall, the sword has a good weight and feel, making it a suitable choice for Tai Chi practitioners. However, serious practitioners may prefer a higher-grade sword. The sword's weight is designed to be suitable for youth or women, weighing approximately 1.7 lbs including the sheath. The blade width is about 1" at the pommel, and although the blade is dull, there is a point at the tip. The balance of the sword can be regulated by the tassels, allowing for personal preference. It is recommended to use a double ball tassel with larger balls for optimal balance. Unfortunately, this particular sword does not come in shorter lengths, as it has a total length of 41 inches with a 29 1/2 inch blade. However, there are guidelines for measuring the correct size of a sword for competition in Tai Chi. In terms of customer reviews, feedback is mixed. Some customers praise the weight and comfortable grip of the sword, as well as its design and length. Others express disappointment with the thickness and heaviness of the blade, as well as issues like bent blades, dropped metal fixtures on the scabbard, and lack of a sword bag. Some customers even suggest that the sword is only suitable for hanging on walls and not for actual practice.
