SPES Wooden Rondel Dagger – 39cm

Wooden training dagger, used for centuries in HEMA schools as a simulator to practice skills.

It will be great for people starting to learn HEMA, regardless of gender or initial skills. However, it requires at least basic equipment (e.g. JF 350N, Light 350N) to minimize any negative feelings during training.

Made of ash, the dagger is made of a single piece of wood and has been fully sanded, but still has the grain on its surface.

Whole is specially profiled so that the simulator fits comfortably in the hand and does not interfere with the exercises. It ends with a ball.

Its weight is so appropriate that the mobility and comfort during training are fully felt.

• the wooden dagger is not impregnated
• remember that this type of equipment should be used when training against simulators with similar properties (materials used, hardness, etc.). By following this rule, your dagger will last longer, and you will be able to enjoy it for much longer
• we suggest using groin overlays and masks to cover the face, especially the eyes, during exercises with wooden simulators
• hitting hard elements, such as shields or metal masks, not secured with soft overlays, can cause their quick wear

An example of a medieval dagger, which the appearance of the SPES product refers to, can be found on the tombstone of Konrad Kolbe von Boppard from 1393.
