This devotion to detail results in a superior grip, heft, and balance. This is beautiful, functional, art you can fight with. They are ideal for full-contact sparring, staged combat, teaching, learning, and practicing swordsmanship.

This protects it from weather and prolongs the life of your axe. Upon receiving your axe, it is a good idea to use a soft cloth to buff the wax into the wood. GUARANTEE: All of our axes do come with a lifetime guarantee if they eer break in battle we will fix or replace them. OUR BACKGROUND: At Hollow Earth, we developed the original hickory sparring weapon. Through many years of testing we have found hickory to be the superior American hardwood for sparring weapons. We founded our company in 1984, and as my children have grown up, so has the business. Now we proudly involve three generations of our family in making our fine wooden weapons. These swords have become a tradition for our family, as we hope they will for yours. Thank you for visiting our shop! * We usually ship our orders in 1-2 weeks.
