The federschwert is currently the most popular for sparring and tournaments. Thanks to the narrow blade, long ricasso, and broad shoulders, the feder combines safety with an authentic feel that closely resembles a medieval battle sword.

The federschwert was designed exclusively for training and dueling techniques and is frequently found in historical combat manuals by Joachim Meyer, among others. Contemporary HEMA practitioners use modern feder variants with safe rounded tips, various pommel shapes, and different flexibility levels for sparring and competitions.
