Historical European Martial Arts

Historical European Martial Arts, also known as HEMA, is a collection of historical European martial arts. Such as medieval sword fighting and historical fencing. For the correct practice of these martial arts, historical manuals like those of Talhoffer are used. Additionally, images in manuscripts from the 15th to 18th centuries are utilized.

Sword Fighting: rubber sword, plastic sword, wooden sword & Red Dragon swords

For practicing HEMA, you can use steel weapons, or special training swords of plastic. In our assortment, we have rubber swords, plastic swords, and wooden swords to train your HEMA skills. Highly recommended are the synthetic swords and sword components of Red Dragon. From the loose components, you can assemble your own sword as desired. They are specially designed for HEMA training and are virtually unbreakable.

Axes, knives & other rubber weapons from Cold Steel

Cold Steel has also developed a special collection for HEMA, consisting of polypropylene training swords and other weapons. Polypropylene is a very strong unbreakable material and therefore perfect for sword fighting. Cold Steel also offers axes, walking sticks, shillelaghs, bucklers, and knives made of polypropylene. All these products are exact replicas of the original weapons and are completely safe for training.
