New practice swords

I have just ordered a wooden single hand waster sword from The Knight Shop which comes to £44 with postage. The cheap Chinese ones we use for contact and applications are so badly weighted, I thought it was time I got something a bit better, and David told me about this site. I will post a review as soon as I have had a chance to test it out. I can't wait for my package to arrive...

Thanks to Christian for the comment below from which I have taken this link for Cold Steel brand polypropylene practice swords, which I have not yet tried. They look very good. The Knight Shop also do a synthetic durable sparring sword, and I will look into both as soon as funds allow. All good recommendations are most welcome.
