Title: Question: Is stage steel allowed?
Post by: kurosakiichigo666 on April 10, 2007, 07:01:17 pm: OK, I noticed that swords that are sharp enough to cut are not allowed. But what if it is sharp enough to cut, but it's in the sheathe the whole time and obviously peacebonded? Will it be allowed then? I really don't wanna have to sand a giant piece of wood into a sword shape and I don't believe in foam swords and such. They always look like crap.

And you made three topics here for the same concern. Stop it. If you have a follow-up question, that's what the post reply button is for.

you indicated a metal sword can be dull enough to be allowed, so just to confirm are rebated (the blade is as dull as a butter knife) metal stage weapons allowed. A lot of the cheap wall hanger swords come that way out of the box or can be easly made that way.

Yeay they allow wooden weapons like a boken and that can kill as easily as stage steel

Let me know when you can. Thanks.

Actually it isn't booked solid anymore. We just expanded our block of rooms with the hotel.
