We know kids love a pirate themed party, and whist the grown-ups get all flustered at the potential damage and disaster of bouncing buccaneers wafting their crazy cutlasses around, we decided to look for a sword that offered all the fun with none of the worry – and we found it with these soft, flexible, Foam Pirate Swords. Battle Ready” does not necessarily mean the blade is sharpened, this depends on the manufacturer. Some sell them sharp like Cold Steel, some dull like Windlass Steel Crafts, and some do both like Hanwei. So if you need to know if it is sharp or not and it is not mentioned in the description, just ask.

They are closest to historic examples in the fact that when properly sharpened they can cut as designed. However, “Battle Ready” does not mean indestructible. Any sword can be broken. Use common sense with your sword, and it will last for generations.

P.O.B. stands for Point Of Balance, this is measured in inches from the hilt down the blade. It refers to the point on the blade where the sword achieves a perfect balance. A number of 0” would balance exactly at the guard, while a negative number will have a POB in the hilt itself. In theory a sword with a POB of 0” is perfectly balanced. In practice however, there are many reasons why you may not want this for a particular sword. A POB of 3”- 5” usually results in a well balanced sword, but does depend on the type of sword. In general, a low POB results in good point control well suited to a thrusting blade, while a higher POB adds impact to a cleaving blade. A very high POB will result in a sword that feels heavier than it actually is and is difficult to wield. Each sword is made from safety certified foam, with a soft handle and no hard bits. We think they make a great alternative to party bag fillers at your Pirate themed celebration, so you can hand them out and swap any of your little guests’ dangerous accessories for these harmless ones. They can run and battle and nobody will have to walk the plank at the end of the day.
