Butterfly Swords Wing Chun
A Good Pair of Butterfly Swords?
Im looking for a pair of practical and flippable butterfly swords. Unfortunately, half of the crap on the internet is poorly made. The problem specifically, is that the handle does not line up with the tip of the blade, or the guards made flipping unnecessarily difficult. Anyone know of a good pair for Hung Gar / Wing Chun?
I’ve used cold steel blades before and they are great and also have a nice weight to them. But they are extremely sharp, and i’m looking for something with an edge, but not something thats gonna lop a partners arm off accidentally.
I have Cold Steel Butterfly swords and I LOVE them!!
I shopped around quite extensively and these were the best ones I could find that were combat ready. I do invert them often and use the reverse grip.
The only downside is when held in one hand the blades do not touch and complete the “one sword” look. I would love ones thats blades are flush when held in one hand but cannot find anything that isn’t junk. The other problem I had found was finding D guards big enough to fit adult sized hands. If I cant hold them, who cares if the blades are touching or not
Maybe you can find something here:

If you go the Cold Steel route, this is the best price I found:
