Butterfly Swords - Buick Yip and EWC v13 - Hybrid Style - Black

If you need a quality pair of training swords at a great price, then look no further. If you want an affordable and solid blade for training, then these are the ones we recommend. They are good for 95% of training needs (everything except weapon vs weapon or sparring) and easy to maintain.

These swords are the latest from a collaboration between Buick Yip and Everything Wing Chun that goes back several years. This is the 13th (and last) model of Buick Yip swords (of which EWC has helped collaborate on the last 11 models). Like all the others, this sword is a limited edition that will sell out. Only 100 are available. It IS the last one Buick Yip will make.

The main differences in this model and the last one are the handle shape and size, the lettering is different, and the grind line. Functionally they are the same. (In the video below Sifu Tommy is reviewing V9 of this sword (not V13).

Please note, the handle quality of these swords is not quite as good as V12. It's more inline with v9. There maybe more issues with handle fit - the best solution is to use grip-tape over the handle.

The Chinese characters on the swords say "Wing Chun" on one blade and "Fist" on the other.

This is a full tang sword so the handle and blade are one piece and will never come apart. No other sword on the market is full-tang at this price. (As a matter of fact, only our high-end models do this, and no other swords on the market from any maker has this feature). This model comes in a glossy or black finish.

Beware imitations! We are the designer and only sellers of this sword - but there are a number of copycat models on the market of our and Buick's swords! We appreciate the fact that everyone loves our designs and wants to make copycat versions of our bags and swords, but don't be fooled. All the ones we have seen are junk.
