It needed to have a bit more "weasley" look but this looks like George Costanza at a ren-fair to me.

Yeah, I've been disappointed by how flimsy recent swords seem to be. I've been buying swords that came with the 1999/2004 Mandarin Spawn to use with my DC figures, and they've held up well despite the passage of time.

I wonder if there's a safety component, though? Like, sharp pointy objects have to be made softer than in the past?
