ActionFlex - the versatile training weapon

Weapons training is integral to most, if not all, martial arts styles.

The sword , often hailed as the “king of weapons,” carries a rich legacy in both Eastern and Western cultures, where swordsmanship was revered as the pinnacle of martial arts skills.

Many martial arts styles practised today had their basis in swordsmanship, as both armed and unarmed skills were integral in most sword arts. Only in more modern times do we see the split between “armed” and “unarmed” styles. However, the sword remains integral to most modern martial arts styles.

While most sword training begins with a wooden sword , we offer a versatile alternative - our range of ActionFlex Swords, designed to enhance your training experience.

These facsimile swords are padded weapons with a strong fibreglass core surrounded by high-density foam. Century has patented a unique piston system that provides less bend and flexion, so the swords handle more like real swords. This allows students to spar and practice without holding back - something you cannot do with wooden swords.

Some of our customers have been using the same ActionFlex swords for ten years or longer with minimal wear and tear – attesting to the longevity and robustness of these products.

Our ActionFlex Swords are not only durable but also safe for use in contact drills, sparring, and tournaments. We recommend using them with protective gear for added safety.

Century’s range of ActionFlex weapons includes swords, kali sticks, staffs, and knives, all of which replicate the sensation of using real weapons.

Other applications for ActionFlex swords include obstacle training, as they are easy to maneuver for jumping over, crawling under, or dodging.
