And it is with a point and a sword blade basket (a stem, the center) that the characteristic assumes steel trained well in "lapel training method" material is united structure. An objective aperture (a rivet of a gun stock aperture) fixing a sword blade to a handle in a rivet of a gun stock to a stem is arranged (there is rarely the thing without a rivet of a gun stock aperture with swords for dedication).
