Thin thrusting swords penetrate an object much like an arrow, they have an oscillation as they penetrate and this power plus rigidity can cause a blade to snap. However it would be difficult in a fight to do so with another sword, although rare conditions could exist that would cause it to happen. I have also seen a couple of "full tang" swords wobble rot (flexion deterioration) out at the rivets and the blade came off the handle. Not all swords should be full tang. Cheap is Cheap. -Lance --__--__-- Message: 2 From: Steve Klement Date: Tue, 26 Sep 2006 14:45:33 -0400 To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Subject: [Eskrima] Suro Mike Inay (RIP) Reply-To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Grandmaster Mike Inay (December 11th, 1944 - September 27th, 2000) Tomorrow will be the sixth year anniversary of the passing of the Founder of Inayan Eskrima, Mangisursuro Mike G.
