Greetings,

I would be inclined to build a custom supporting stand out of ethafoam and corrugated board.  Additional pieces of ethafoam can be placed at the corners and narrow edges to protect the hilt and the point.

Thank you,

Hello everyone!

I have a fencing sword that measures 47.5” in length and 12.5” in width at the hilt. I have looked at scroll boxes and large poster tubes from Hollinger but they aren’t wide enough to accommodate the hilt. I don’t want to just wrap them in tissue because I am worried about things hitting the hilt.

Any suggestions? Are there commercially available sword storage boxes?

Thanks!
