Wukusi Steel Federschwert (Short)

I like the weight and feel of this federschwert, easy to assemble. Definitely a solid option for the price. Only complaint would be the hilt feels a little too angular in an ungloved hand, but with gloves on it’s not really a problem. Solidly recommend for this price range.

I am 5'6" the short is the perfect size!!!! Great balance cant ask for more!!!

I love this sword however it has a few differences that might be negatives depending on who you ask.

The bag it came with, especially in this price range is a very nice touch. The 3D printed handle is not bad at all, it was targeted by a few sparring partners for the lulz and stood up to some mighty hits. (as a 3D printer enthusiast/small business owner, It looks like PLA+ which would be my choice of material).
The balance can feel a bit odd, i feel it's a bit forward leaning but that can be a personal thing/changed with a pommel.
My biggest issue with it is the size of the handle, as others have mentioned, in large mittens can feel small and awkward in some guards, however this will probably not be a problem for people with smaller hands or depending how you grab it.

Overall great sword, lovely bag but the handle could be longer and I understand how being 3D printed can be a turn off but personally I dig it.

It has good balance and isn’t too heavy. I am fairly new to the sport but the sword meets my needs well.

I don't have a HEMA club near me and this is my first Feder, so take the following with a grain of salt. I like it a lot. It's slightly more nimble than the longsword I own (Ronin Euro #7), which is good since the longsword has a slightly fatter cross section than it should have. Thus, this feder should approximate a longsword well.

Not much to comment on the blade other than it's not whippy, which is good. The cross guard is intentionally plain and simple, but is quite sturdy at just under 3/8" thick in the center. It does have casting marks, but not too bad. It's simple but effective.

The grip had some odd plastic "hairs" sticking up when I received it, but they wore off pretty quickly. I assume that's leftover from the 3D printing. It's "grippy" enough that it doesn't slip, but doesn't tear up my hands. I'll probably add a proper grip at some point, but this one is utilitarian and works fine.

The pommel is about the right size to sit in someone's closed hand and has a typical cast texture to it. It's quite comfortable to use it for leverage, which I do. Importantly, the tang does extend into the pommel by just under 3/8", so the threaded rod that's welded to the tang isn't the only thing keeping it on straight.

Overall, I'm pretty happy with it. I'm seriously considering ordering the long version when it comes back into stock, so that should tell you something about my opinion.
