Ensifer Standard Messer (2022 Version)

Have only used it once so far but it is great! The look of it is what drew me in and it definitely looks and feels like a quality piece. You almost don’t want to use it because of how nice it looks. But it’s meant to be used and it definitely feels comfortable in the hand and the nagel is sturdy and stops the blows no problem. It weaves and cuts and responds quick in drills. I’ll update once the holidays pass and I use it more

Love these guys, we have a bunch at our club now. They are light and lively in the hand. But can carry out those messer specific cuts well; the weight of the messer Carrie’s through nicely when performing an entrusthau. This is definitely on the lighter or more nimble end of messers, but for good reasons; messers can hit hard. It’s a great and durable purchase. Compared to the older models, this is slightly heavier, but feels more floaty in the hand. It also has a thicker edge and holds up much better to repeated edge abuse.

I received my beautiful messer within the week that I ordered it, and it was packaged very well. In this new, more difficult era of shipping that we live in, SoCal Swords was a real pleasure to work with.
About the sword, it is nimble blade that demands respect in the bind. It has held up to some hard sparring sessions so far, and it feels great in the hand. I look forward to using tool for many years to come!
