is it good for dueling?

Yes. It has good monsters, spells and trap. I had a lot of cards from 1800 to 2400 attack points. I have about 5 xyz monsters and spells that boost my monsters and traps that traps the monster or which it can help me. Don't be upset of you get duplication because if it is a powerful card, you can use a duplicate.

I got a few good cards but nothing to really build a new deck i got some good dragons aquas and sperpents and some xyz monsters but i got like 11 rose witches tht i dont use but i think its at random
1723093
I wouldn't say so..I got more monster cards than spells and traps...and whatever I did get was all random and few of the cards actually matched up

Personally, with just the cards I got from this, I have never won a single duel. But if you already have a deck or two this might give you some good monster cards to add to your deck (if your lucky). I received almost no trap and spell cards (maybe 5 that were able to be used, others couldn't because they required a specific monster). But as always its very random so there is no absolute yes or no answer.

I ordered from ccg unlimited, and the cards i received were terrible. I received 7 or 8 copies of several poor cards. The holos didn't contain duplicates but most of them weren't very good. If you want to try it out, i wouldn't order from them. Just consider buying one and see how it works for you. Personally, i think buying singles is better. Do your research for cards online, and pick the cards you want.

Depends, I believe it's strong for sparring with a partner... but cracking down trees... idk

Yes the sword is very sturdy, I love it. And you can swing it but it weighs a good amount so I wouldn't use one hand but you can swing it perfectly fine.

Yes, I bought this for sparring when my husband and I took a samurai sword class. Its a beautiful sword. It was a great price. The hand wrap did start to unravel over time. But you can just glue it back or take it off. Can't beat the price. I'm sure that happens with all of them.

By my standards, if you just hit it against something very hard, it will break. But if you just use it in battles and don't fall against it, it will be fine

the steel is strong enough and it has some heft however it needs to be sharpened which if you do will degrade the overall stregth and quality of the blade there is no blood grove and the blade itself doesnt feel quite balanced for true sword fighting i have mine for cosplay only but its cheap enough so hack away my friend hack away

it really depends on what you want to use it for. The blade is well constructed, and would work well, in my opinion, for competition use. As for actual battle purposes it would need to be more along the lines of 1040 or higher carbon steel as opposed to the 440 stainless this is constructed of. The blade can be removed and replaced by simply unscrewing it from the pommel, and you can find a small blacksmith shop that can hook you up with a 1040 carbon steel blade.

It is sturdy and sharp enough if used as a weapon, it could do some serious damage. However, for cosplay purposes, the blade is completely dull, and not sharpened. It's metal, can still cut if you intend to. The tip is really sharp though. If you poke a bedsheet with it, it will probably rip it.

It is sharp enough out of the box (and the oil has been removed) to function and cut very easily. It should not be used as a practice sword. While the blade is machine sharp, I recommend having a professional hone the blade a fine edge.

Mine appears to be, I have used it in a few duels an nothing was said that it wasn't, but at the same time they were not official tournament duels. Hope this helps a little bit...

It is as durable or more than most foam-type swords I've seen. My son does not use it for sword fights, however, as it is a symbol of Minecraft and he prefers to just have it with him. That is not to say he hasn't hit things with it.

very good for self defense if you know good technique. I am an instructor of a karate school, and also teach traditional weaponry. this is my choice of weapon for home defense. I don't have to worry about a stray bullet hitting my children if my home is broken in to at night. also, I don't worry as much about a kid getting a hold of this like I would a gun. and with good technique, you can give the word "disarming an opponent" a whole new meaning.

I don't try balancing the sword its razor sharp and I want to keep my fingers.I use it for martial arts cutting its a great katana for the price well made.

it's a decent buy, but only depending on what you're getting it for. if your getting one for sport or anything else that requires the firepower, then no and you need to go higher end by all means. if your talking about something for cosplay or other miscellaneous geekdom, then it's perfect for the price and will handle most abuse you toss at it.

This sword is pretty hardie. I am not sure about contact fighting, and be careful, you can stick someone very easyle .

For light dueling, yes. My brother, who is around your age, and I duel fairly often with our sabers. I have the Force FX, he has the Ultimate FX. Both have held up well through several duels, although we do have an agreement to never hit too hard.

Yes, it's pretty good but build-wise isn't that sturdy. Loses it's finesse in close cut, if you drop it accidentally !
