What is a Category C sword?

These swords are made of good quality tempered carbon steel, although they are not always perfectly balanced. Due to their construction, they are considered functional weapons, but not suitable for medieval combat due to their limited hardness and resistance to repeated impacts.

What is the blade hardness of a Category C sword?

The blade hardness is always below 48 HRC. Like categories A and B, they have a full tang screwed or welded to the hilt. However, the balance does not always reach the same quality as in higher categories.

Characteristics of a Category C sword

Although not intended for intensive combat, they have important functional characteristics: carbon steel blades, controlled tempering, specific hardness for their use, and a full tang—essential elements to withstand moderate blows without compromising safety.

What is a Category C sword used for?

Their main use is in areas where aesthetics and light functionality are prioritized over combat resistance:

  • Film and audiovisual productions
  • Plays and stage performances
  • Processions and religious events
  • Popular festivals and themed parades
  • Medieval reenactment without combat
