Talk:Sword
Those CK swords are not legal- the handle is too long. Do we really want illegal examples on the Wiki? -Lurker
I think Lurker is right.
The strike legal portion of a non-pole/non-hinged must be 2/3 or more of the total length of the sword. I haven't counted pixels or anything, but those look a bit long to me. Remember, the pommel counts as part of the handle.
For reference:
They all contain the same verbage: The pommel and Handle of the weapon can be no longer than 1/3 of the weapon’s total length. If used to slash or bludgeon, at least 2/3 of its length must be Strike-Legal.
I suppose they could be thrust-only swords, but I Rather Doubt It. --Lucas 19:03, 5 February 2009 (EST)
I agree that in the picture they do appear to be of illegal measurements. But since they live in my closet, and I made them, I can assure you that they are of legal spec, squeaking to centimeter, but legal. I have been looking for another picture of typical round blades for a while, just haven't tripped over any. Either of you guys have one? --Linden 19:34, 5 February 2009 (EST)
