This video shows students using swords with their factory edge on our usual kind of targets. It shows how difficult it is to cut actually.

They don’t do it as well as the Old Master but I enjoyed watching.

Stock edge is sharp enough to go through bottles, but had difficulty on uncored part of the newspapers rolls and definitely not going through the cored part. The student with Hanwei Tinker longsword is a very good associate coach and cuts very good too. Still with stock edge he couldn't cut through the core. Thanks for watching!
