Full Tang Modern Chopper Butterfly Swords - BLACK

If you need a quality pair of training swords at a great price, then look no further.

These swords are the latest from a collaboration between Buick Yip and Everything Wing Chun that goes back several years. This is the 7th model of Buick Yip swords (of which EWC has helped collaborate on the last 5 models). Like all the others, this sword is a limited edition that will sell out. Only 50 are available.

We insisted that the swords be full-tang for you. This way the blade could never come loose during your training. All modern production swords (with the exception of our own handmade swords) cut corners in this area and make swords that are dangerous for real training. A full hidden tang goes all the way to the base of the sword. We also made a few changes to the D-Guard and quillon (slimmer D-guard and longer quillon) based on your feedback from the previous model. We put a lenticular grind on the blades instead of a hollow-grind.

Lastly, we wanted a price range that was affordable for you. Our Flagship line of swords (priced at $399+) are high-end swords and an absolute steal at $399 (these swords easily sell for $800+). Even so, we know that $400 is a bit steep in this economy, so we wanted to introduce this mid-level sword for a great price. At $199 we think these swords are the best production sword on the market for under $250. It is the only solid training blade and only full-tang production sword on the market (out side of EWC's other swords, of course). If you cannot afford our flagship line of swords, do not want to have to upkeep the blades as much, or just want a solid blade for training, then these are what we recommend.
