"Unbreakable" Sword

Mike W.:
A friend of mine works as a performer at Medieval Madness in Alexandria. Today he posted a picture of his unbreakable Badger Blade.

Thorsteinn:
Why did they say it was unbreakable? For story sake?

Sir Rodney:
Yikes!   :o

Ask your friend to contact Badger Blades regarding their warranty.

--- Quote from: Badger Blades ---We are handcrafters of fully functional, combat ready swords, knives, daggers and various implements of destruction. All of our weapons are warranteed for the life of the smith against breakage of the blade, not because they are weak and we hope you don't break it, because they are the toughest blades you can buy for the money we charge.

Our blades have been used to chop apart old cars, engine blocks, bowling balls, appliances, concrete, trees, tire rims and just about anything else you can imagine including live steel stage combat.

We consider this to be normal use of our weapons. If you were to damage it, or break it during the course of these types of activities we will repair or replace it for the life of the smith free of charge.

For specific details please see our warranty.

Sir Edward:

Yikes! I know exactly how sword-breaks occur in HEMA with normal HEMA gear, but Badger swords are seriously overbuilt (as their warranty indicates). How did this happen?

Sir Douglas:
Holy cow!

It sounds like they're designed to take quite a bit of abuse. In that case, there is only one explanation for its breakage. He was obviously fighting someone who was armed with a katana. ::)
