All weapons are stripped, de-burred, buffed clean, and reassembled tight before going out again. We don't have them "available" until this care is complete.

Will place weapons on reserve at no extra charge. If it's on reserve, we do not rent it out between the time when you reserve it and when you need it. We never assume it will be back in time from another job.

We consider whether or not a blade will "read" on stage (epees can get lost in the light), if a sword can be used both right- and left-handed, how well it will survive being dropped, how hard it will be to retrieve from a drop, whether it will catch on costumes, and how hard it will be to maintain (can the blood be washed off easily, for example).

Blades broken during the course of normal use will be replaced— customer only pays shipping. Broken blades can be returned to us when the rest of the order returns.
