Great as always!

Nice review of the non-retractables, Paul. Now, I know which swords between the non-retractables and the retractables I'll be looking to get for my own training (wooden and Physcool). 😁

[@aiyuudigitaltime3247]

And what is your opinion on polypropylene training swords? They don't have the problem to be deteriorated by water, but are they as safe as wood ones? Have you worked with them before?

[@teapotmonk]

I'm afraid not nor have any of my students. You are right they won't rust, and are probably light too but they lack the portability of the retractable, and that was the main advantage for students travelling with their swords.
