Overall the Sword looks amazing, the foam is very cushy and soft. I absolutely love how it looks and it's decals are really nice. The problems are that the sword is weak. If you try to the thrust with it, after only a bit, the PVC core pokes right through the foam. I know a lot of people use this term with foam sword an poking through, but it really is a hazard. Also, decal is just some kind of latex covering, that can tear really easy if there is some kind of rip in the foam. I don't fancy the handle either. It's made of foam and the covering slightly ripped in my hand. It was really awkward when trying to swing the sword. I put some tape around the handle for better grip and to make it tougher. It swings much better that way. It's fine if you're just buying it for the looks, or as a sword that you have temporarily just to look cool and beat around with. But as an overall long term weapon, I would not suggest you buy it.
