Very good sword. Edges are slightly sharp (I was practicing tonight, and was experimenting and nicked the top few layers of skin on my left palm) but it's not sharp enough to practically cut someone.

Balance is a little off (a couple of inches above the hilt), but other than that, it is a very great sword. 5 stars

Master Chinese Tai Chi Practice Sword Well Balanced New
This Sword Is amazing for the price. Great Balance, and a secure feel for practice, Though the tip is slightly sharp, Due to the way the edges are dulled. The polished steel is gorgeous, and it is well and securely packaged when shipped, so You have no worries about it being damaged on delivery. I have used it for practice of Wushu forms (Eight Immortals, Mainly) and for solo Tai Chi practice.

Buy it. Great Deal for the money. 4 stars
