These swords are the best! My son loves Swords and omg this one does not hurt at all. It actually makes it enjoyable when you are accidentally hit with it by a 2 year old. At that age they are still learning the parameters of their body and impulses so naturally you are bound to get dinged once or twice. Not only is the sword beautiful it is also harmless and oh SO durable! I want the Trident next!

We are so excited that you and your son have fun with the swords in a safe manner! The Trident is also a great item to add to your toy box šŸ™‚

Makes for fun (and safe) play

We’ve had one for about 3 years and decided to get one for every member of the family so now we can have epic battles.

That sounds so fun Christina! We're so happy the swords could bring your family together in play!

Adorable

My girls love it! They each have one and it's so much less scary than their wooden swords. At least less scary for mama haha.
I don't know if you would want these for kids that are rougher on their toys though. Not sure if they would last with some kiddos.

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us!
