1.
A sword with its tip and edge blunted for safety, diminishing the ability to use it as a weapon: intended for dramatic representation.
An impact load is applied suddenly, like when a prop sword strikes a wall.
Similar to modern fencing blades, historical sword blades are also not made for the repeated edge-to-edge play called upon for performance swordplay. They are intended for an actual duel or battle. They are meant to wound or kill. They are sharp. Conversely a good prop sword is made for the purpose of safe repetition of edge-to-edge- contact through hundreds of hours of rehearsal and performance. To reiterate, prop weapons must never be sharp, never have an edge or point.
