I spent 500 bucks on this meme only for UPS to frick it up during the shipping process. The Blade weighs rough 20lbs with attachments that can increase the weight to 30lb. I can neither get refund, replacement, or repair. How the frick do I get this handle back on and have it strong enough the force of 20lb blade being swung. Wood glue? Mending plates? FRICK!
fricking weebs
drill a hole on both sides in the center, stick a dowel in it and then use wood glue
hope for the best
this. you can also try runing a couple bolts through metal brackets on either side (one through the handle the other through the blade) on top of that to add extra support but it might make it really uncomfortable to use and there's no guarantee it won't just break again even more catastrophically.
Either warranty it because others pointed out the knot
Make ups pay for it
Or do a charge back if they refuse
Don't be a useless weeb next time, nobody carries a sword like that
Looks like it broke right on a knot, what a cheap pos
This.
Its bad craftsmanship. The weakest place that will handle the most load had knot.
It looks like it was cnc cut with no regard for the natural inclusions.
You got scammed. Anyone with basic wood working tools could pump out 5 of these per day. It looks like automated power tools were used, so 500 per shift.
500 dollars
now you have an 500 USD charcuterie board
this homie thinks he's guts or cloud lmao. what a gay
Came to say this.
Seconded, kek. What are you training for, OP fighting Jenova?
This dork should have just swung a big metal pipe around like that autist on PrepHole, but I guess that wouldn't feel like his heckin wholesome vidya
Have you SEEN the price of metal pipe? Such a thing would cost him $40-60. For something nice. A real affirmative-action enjoyer.
I would just go get some from the scrap yard but I'm not moronic so....
lmao @ 30 pounds blade. Should've gotten a suburito instead of a meme.
Did you really pay $500 for a shitty piece of 2x12?
WITH BULLNOSE EDGES!
It broke on a fricking knot. Thst is 1000% a manufacturing defect. Get a refund because they NEVER shoukd have manufactured that with a fricking knot in the handle. Fricking clown tier. Rip those mother frickers a new one. Refund only. Do not replace
This. Make them famous then burn it and grow the frick up. Fantasy is stupid.
>mastercrafted
"Mastercrafted" has no meaning. This is however a small price to pay to learn to grow up. You cannot hide from life. Go be a real warrior and stop pretending.
Oh yeah how do I be a "real" warrior tough guy?
Take up a sniper position in the snow and stay there for 5 days without moving. If you're spotted, reset the clock.
Join your countrys (or anothers) armed forces then do the necessary to get into ground combat. Millions do it globally That's what being a "warrior" looks like IRL. There is no plot armor and most of war is boring, but you like countless others can get your piece of the action. /k/ has all the info for those who dream of special ops. Go FFL, whatever.
Or you can pretend to be part of a child's cartoon and be rightly laughed at for mental illness.
>/k/ has all the info for those who dream of special ops
first step is cut your dick off, thats the baseline for a /k/omando
Cosplayers are infintitely worse for wanting to be children which is the most vile, degenerate, regressive effeminate weakeness.
They should be bullied to suicide like troons.
Sorry Israel, I'm just not going to do it, die for you. I know I know, I'm sorry! Im just not going to do it, is all.
When you whip out your dick, then she does hers.
You're baiting this board and everyone is gullible for believing you
Don't listen to this gay. If wielding a sword like guts does inspires you and moves you to your dreams, do it.
I'm praying that you take this loss as a lesson to put more thoughy into what you are purchasing, the skill you are learning, and what healthy performance from said skill's required tools looks like.
Research properly what you are paying for and wielding, and do your due diligence in regards to what a reasonable price actually is for whatever product you are interested in. Compare prices. Look at reviews. Search for reviews in different places. If the product is on Etsy, look for the seller's reviews on other places too. If the product is on Amazon, look for reviews on reddit and YouTube.
I hope my comment is helpful and I hope you ignore the gays putting you down for making a mistake. It's okay to make mistakes and I too want to wiels a sword like this. I hope you refuse to give up and heed the words I shared above.
Here king, you dropped your crown:

Honestly as funny as this all is maybe we all learned a lesson. Maybe just maybe the real wooden training sword was the friends we made along the way.
why would you spend 500 on that?
holy shit OP got scammed hardcore

Well now I know my new business
>this thread
Next time I see those cosplay gays on a college campus, I’m going to try and hold my laughter for a couple minutes and tell them I do custom swords for 20% less than the competition. That router will pay for itself in no time.
>Next time I see those cosplay gays
Is that what these training swords are for? If so, why is the weight important. Are they training to use a large heavy sword for any sort of real combat, or is it all cosplay, in which case I'd think appearance is all that would count. But OP paid 500 bucks for a simple board, and he calls it a training sword. I'm fricking at a loss to understand what is going on here.
t. clueless boomer
I think it's because OP is a Belmont and Dracula has magnetic power armor now.
It's workout equipment for people who think going to the gym is boring, which it is.
It totally is a scam. Whatever method you used to pay for it will have buyer protection for exactly this situation. Do a chargeback and just make your own autism sword. You can get all the tools and materials you need for the frickin $500 you paid for it.
Just for the hell of it, I decided to throw all the tools you'd need to make your own in a harbor freight cart. Came to $291.81 plus tax and shipping. You could totally do it for less without the sander and power saw too.
>circular saw and blade
>router and bit
>sawhorses
>clamps

>circular saw guide

Forgot the drill and bits so you can add those extra weights to it, so add $25-30 for the cheap one.
>custom multilayered paint job
>it's just dark stain with random rattlecan splotches
It's Indian club training for the autistic weeb crowd. You can just buy a 2 handed workout club for about a hundred bucks (or DIY one out of a small log).
>GRUG SMASH
You're larping harder than the op. Everyone knows you wouldn't get your tools dirty.
lmaooooooo why does everyone in that pic look like a huge homosexual
>that will be $1,259.95 USD plus shipping plus tip
holy shit it really is just a regular 2x12
You could make that using 6' of steel pipe for a handle and spine then weld steel plate to the outside for roughly the same weight and about $100, and you could actually decapitate someone with it.

>Cosplay gays are really weird. Imagine spending all that time and money to play adult dress up for something nerds will think is cool that won't get you pussy, really weirdo hobby
Cosplay is actually a really easy way to frick weird introvert sex pest girls if you have more charisma than the wet paper bag of the average attendant. You won't be fricking the ultra hot ones with crazy getups because they have an ego the size of the moon but there are plenty of others who are less attractive and they know it. Catch is most of them are absolutely fricking batshit (but aren't all women? bottom text).

OP is a massive moron.
Quite the nice scam.
Looks like the guys at the company are living it up in Santa Monica or Venice Beach CA.
get a refund, then buy an oak bokudo from japan for $100 on ebay
If you go to a site like ebogu, or really any kendo place you can get bokuto much cheaper than $100. They sell weighted suburito and shit as well for pretty cheap.
OP is a fricking moron who got scammed, I hope its not a real post.
Do you have a learning disability or brain tumor maybe?
Either sister it with metal plates and wood glue, or throw out the handle, and carve a new one out of the bottom of the blade.
Guys it's not a fricking scam or a ripoff. This thing is mastercrafted and well worth the price I paid. I just want a way to fix it,m not a chorus of kissless incel cucks jealous I have something cool and valuable.
Master craft? Is it because he was masterbaiting while making it?
>mastercrafted
lol, lmao even. No one mastercrafting anything would include that many knots. And no "master" is going to refuse a refund/replacement on that, only a scammer would.
>I just want a way to fix it
Remake from scratch with better quality materials. Not joking.
Cheap secondhand router $60
Cheap secondhand drill $20
Router bit $20
Drill bit $5
Wood $20
Any saw $20
Time 2hrs@$20/hr = $40
$185 assuming no equipment at all (which is poor tbf)
You still overpaying. You literally just need almost any kind of saw (a good hand saw, probably something you could find for free, would work fine) and some sandpaper. Like $30 max, plus $8 (plus tax and tip) for a 2x8x8 from Home Depot.
>Time 2hrs@$20/hr = $40
If this dude bought a wood sword made from construction lumber for $500, he is not smart enough for his time to be worth $20/hour, IDGAF.
All the tools are worth owning anyway and the earlier you buy tools the more years they serve you and save your wallet.
It's a 2x12 the guy cut with a jigsaw and ran over the edges with a router. From your pic it broke on a knot which means he didn't even bother to do the minimum amount of effort to make sure the board he used didn't have a knot where the handle would be. It should have been stronger if he just glued 1x2 oak boards to the rough shape and routed it bit then it would take more than an hour to make because he would have to wait for the glue to dry.twrhn
>This thing is mastercrafted and well worth the price I paid.

I frickin love this thread.
OP, show us your materia.
if your handy and have a pocket drill jig, jam the fricked up splinters back together and drill out a hole for a dowel. remove when drilled, and apply glue to fricking every fricking thing, and smush it in place. then send your dowel in carefully with liberal amounts of glue. wait for it dry completely. then sand it all down flush. when its all done, hang it up and cry because its a piece of shit that will never be useable at all.
Then plate, then tie with epoxy impregnated paracord.
i wouldnt even bother with that. just fix it enough to look alright and have it serve as a reminder not to buy dumb shit when you can just make it
due to high demand new orders can expect a 6-8 week delay in production time.

You got scammed, broseph. Hardcore scammed. Get a refund, and if they deny it call your bank and reverse the charges. Worst they can do to you is demand you send the broken product back and not sell to you again, which isn't an issue at all considering this company is a fricking scam.

Why in the frick isn't UPS not refunding you?
Seller here, UPS has as many road blocks as possible to stop you from getting a refund, even with shipping insurance. They're worse than an airline.

Training swords training swords
I actually made a pair of Indian mace clubs from a piece of tree I found army a wildcat dump ( where people start just dumping trash, broken furnitur, any kind of old appliances TVs , matresses n boxframe, clothes etc.) on edge of town.
I actuallyhad a HF woodlathe gifted to me years ago but never used.
Well I used it and just mostly eyeballed it and came out with a great set of clubs. I just watched a few yowtube videos on how to use woodlathe and pow, now I can do basic shit.
I also made a very heavy club out of a very dense mesquite log I had that had cured in the sun for a few years.
Just used a handsaw, hatchet, woodchisels, big cabinet file, and sand paper.
Fileing and sandpaper took the longest. It was well worth it. Some places want to charge thousands for a pair not including shipping.
I am way beyond what I used to be in strength and agility and flexibility before I started club training four years ago
I once welded a hilt onto a lawnmower blade and ground it into a machete, does that count?
with bench grinder? is grinding metal supposed to be fun? can you grind something to shape with angle grinder esp something kinda small
I recently made a really big bowie from a truck leaf spring, this is post tempering
Does that count?
I fenced foil for five years, which if OP is still watching this thread is a much more fun and socially acceptable way to live out your fantasy action fantasy and I highly recommend it. Made a bunch of friends and was in the best shape of my life. $500 will cover all your equipment and a couple months of lessons.
>I spent 500 bucks
You're joking, right? You could make that in 10-15 minutes with a circular saw and a $10 board from home depot.
you spent $500 on that?
frick this thread is embarrassing.
I saw the meme videos a few months ago but ashgay is absolutely shameless, as well as the clearly autistic OP
>$500
>shitty pine board
>roughly cut
You could have had a jigsaw and a router for the money and make infinite amount of weeb charcuterie boards if you were not a moron.
I'm not sure the design would ever work, knot or not. It's all way too heavy to strike anything without that flimsy handle breaking. Is it made for striking things, or just swinging around like an butthole?
Your best and only bet would to be what first post said.
I would tell you to cut the breaks off flat and straight, drill the largest diameter hole that the handle can manage to fit inside, make the hole as deep as possible too, even up into the blade area, you may have to buy a special long bit for that, and you'll have to be super careful not to blow out a side while drilling it. Buy a hardwood dowel, and wood glue. Fill both holes with wood glue. Pound dowel in as deeply as possible and don't worry about glue all over the place. Then attach the second half and clamp if you can. Allowing a few days dry time, but make sure to wipe away your excess glue, or you'll be sanding it off later.
>Is it made for striking things, or just swinging around like an butthole?
I mean, i doubt it matters either way, even just swinging that big board around in the air with that scrawny little pine handle is more than enough to break the thing.
If it's intended to be a weapon, then shit, just picking up any decent size branch laying on the ground would be a much better choice.
It's just made for swinging around not striking things. But usually the handles hold up really well. I've had my original one for almost 5 years and I've beat the hell out of it, turned it into a skateboard, dropped it, etc, and I don't think that handle will ever break. But every piece of wood is unique, so sometimes breaks happen.

Guys, OP here. He has offered to send me a replacement if I cancel the claim I filed. Should I do it?
Nope. He scammed you, get your money back.
moron.
No, it was poor construction.
No. He'd still make a profit at the end of the day because it was so cheap to make in the first place. Get a refund or file a claim.
never cancel as you then cannot open another claim when he sends you nothing. literally notate in your claim that you will close upon receiving a replacement as seller offered only
dumbshit Black person you have an incredibly overpriced shitty indian club/meel you could have gotten a good one for less than half that
>The Blade weighs rough 20lbs
No it doesn't.
>I can't get a refund
Tell your credit card company you received a broken item and the seller refuses to refund it.
Yikes. Likely a troll... and if not, given you bought this in lieu of DIY. However, in case you're serious, or somebody dumpsterdives this piece of firewood, picrel is how I fixed somebody else's CNC abomination of a plaque. Seems knowledge/consideration of grain is no more.
Not one but two piths there next to each other. Orienting grain perpendicular to the long axis. That thing will crack soon anyway.
It was in two pieces. Somebody probably maximized a slab of wood, instead of optimizing the grain orientation.
Seems like a cool helpful guy tho
Damn op, I'm tempted to make you a real one so you're less miserable.

What should I do now? He insist on giving me the replacement
Tell him you're not interested and he can scam some other dumbass with the one he just made.
Fricking no lmao
Get your money back, you got scammed
Don’t let them send you another $20 piece of wood
>it's already been made
ofc there isn't much to make
why would he want to give you your $500 back when he can just make another $20 piece of shit and send that to you instead
kek he just wants to appease you so you don't frick up his grift
^This. Make him famous and screencap this thread for reference.
was it paid for on paypal? not sure what sort of time consuming paper work he needs to do. Whenever i have to refund something on my store it takes like 5 minutes tops
a long time ago apparently
>It's already made

The sword saga is over bros, I met him in person and he gave a replacement. Pretty cool chap, complimented My jesus stickers . I am satisfied
looks like he gave you a beat up used one, look at the holes
Pilot hole, drill final hole size just over halfway through on both sides.
How the frick does someone chip out their drilled hole so badly then continue to do the rest like that without stopping and fixing the issue?!
t-those are speed holes!
I really hope this is an elaborate self promotion, as otherwise i can't even feel sorry for you, anon.
The tearout on those holes makes me sad
>Those unfinished/torn out holes
>Doesn't even look like he sanded the surface, clear grain tearing from construction lumber
>Cheapest yellow shellac finish

The universe gave you a chance when the first sword arrived already broken. You decided to disregard it and I hope the new one breaks too and breaks you in the process
bruuughh
You are beyond help.
Nice has your strength improved since wielding the blade? Been thinking of getting one of these to help me get in shape, at 350lbs I have to use a scooter to get around and think this might help not sure if I'll be able to swing it sitting down.
Just keep swingin them monster hoagies into you gullet but start supplementing with man doses of laxitives
Youll tune up in no time fatty

what a fricking butthole that seller is, im honestly at a loss of words
https://ashmanathletics.com/collections/the-dragonslayers
what a sad thread
congratulations you spent 500 dollars on a plank with 5 saw cuts. you could have PrepHole'd it with ease. no or minimal power tool, and a piece of lumber. you should burn it to learn a lesson.
I’m the seller. I’d like to address a few things. First, the sword was $299, not $500. OP payed $337 including shipping. It includes the attachable weights and hardware for them. That’s what the holes are for. All swords cut, planed, routed, drilled, sanded, branded and are given multiple layers of stain and protective coating. I have stood on the swords between sawhorses to test the strength and they don’t break. UPS throws the boxes around, even with fragile stickers on them, so when I send out hundreds of swords, breaks are inevitable.
I have replaced every single sword broken by UPS for free.
I’m not scamming anyone, I sell exactly what I advertise. Giant wooden swords. I’m not forcing anyone to buy it, and plenty of people make their own. Mine are the best.
The price reflects the cost of materials, gas for transporting everything, time it takes to make them, cost of renting shop space, tools and misc supplies, and paying my employees a fair wage. Not to mention making just enough profit to feed myself. Oh and everything is taxed.
If you’re mad about the prices, blame the federal reserve for printing so much money that the dollar isn’t worth shit anymore, not me for pricing accordingly to the market.
Same reason your $5 footlong cost $18 now.
As for the Asta sword, it’s called preventative pricing. The sword took 3 days to make, and I don’t want to do it again.
OP thank you for giving me the chance to make you another sword, I hope you enjoy training with it.
It's a piece of wood.
>hand selected grade 1 Douglas fir
Let's pretend your post is real. How is this even a multiple men operation? Emphasis on multiple.
And get a fricking counter sink drill.

This has to be the best troll thread ever.

This thread is historical, put me in the screenshot
first those neck exercise contraptions now this
i bet PrepHole could come up with a better fitness scam
Has anyone considered that this whole thread was probably started by the seller to create outrage and therefore exposure? You morons will believe anything.
Exposing his own scam? (You) just called him a moron.
apart from maybe data traffic I see no reason why. its not like anyone in this thread would buy one. hell, the most likely outcome is someone here steals the idea to rip off weebs themselves. it can only make competition for him. I struggle to believe this thread is real but I simply see no reason for it to be disingenuous
Although morons exist (re: OP), I seriously doubt anyone is going to order overpriced swords from this scammer.
This PrepHole + PrepHole + /cgl/ + PrepHole crossover arc was a good start to the year
no way am I letting this gem go off page 10
it can go any further unless the seller is buthurt enough to come defend himself

Bait
Imagine living in that fricking squalor and spending $500 on that hunk of shit. Has to be bait.
I mean some people live in squalor because of unfairness but some people live in squalor because they’re fricking stupid. They will often go on to blame everyone else for their own stupid moronic decisions. “I should have nice things like a big house and a mercedes even though I piss away money like it’s free and the moment something broke on a house I would be utterly fricked and need someone to again bail me out because I can’t afford to repair my sewer line for 8k after I spent all my income on disposable gas station vapes, funko pops, and wooden swords that you swing around for some reason like exercise i guess?”
that's a squalor? how do you live?
does the $500 at least include the weights?
yes it does
Make a claim with ups. You can get a refund. Don't eat 500 dollars man.
However if you are going to fix it you'd have to use a metal plate on both sides of the handle drilled and bolted into place, but again there's no reason to eat the cost. But looking at the design I have to say it's likely to break right there anyway. I don't know why they made it flat. The force of a sudden stop or wind resistance is going to snap it regardless.
>I spent 500 bucks on a plank
Check out this wood shield I bought from Cash Man for $399 including shipping.
Why would you use a big larper wooden paddle of a "sword" instead of a stick with weight on one end, or a kettlebell, or a clubbell?
You could also try to use an actual paddle instead. Fricking idiot. I can't believe you bought a $500 piece of shit wood instead of diying something more robust and functional.
>paying for a piece of shitty pine

>OP is the dude that runs the site
If so he's playing 4d chess because he inflated the price according to the web site and the supposed post from the site owner above. My own opinion is that OP started sincere, then tried to turn it into bait later on, and maybe the site owner posted even later, but not likely in my opinion.
The real takeaway is that the site owner sells this garbage to pathetic dweebs and laughs all the way to the bank.
> positive publicity
He should have went to PrepHole or /b/
This board is filled with people with woodworking equipment and sidegigs.
Its not "good publicity"
Its the sound of dollar signs popping up over peoples heads.
There's no way they actually have a registered trademark on Dragonslayer
I couldn't find their application for Dragonslayer, but I did find the application for Ashman. He only filed it back in September.
Look up Dorkmugger.
You don't actually need to register a trademark to put a tm. It's an informal form of trademarking. If it were registered it would have that R in the circle.
True, in the same way that picrel is "an informal way" of being a peace officer.
>Leg day
more like log day
>This is a tool designed to make people stronger, not a weapon for harm or impact on hard surfaces
No. You're the tool.
>Slim Dragonslayers
AHAHAHAHAHAH
Looks like Assman has some competition.

It can't be this simple to scam weebs, i got to get in on this.
OP isn't even the worse I've seen on this board when it comes to weeb scamming
first of all quality bait Black person
second you can litteraly buy actual real sharpened steel sword with which you can you can cut through a bulletproof vest and the man behind it for 300-400 eur you can even get fricking african sugar cane machetes for 50-100 eur what a scam lmao a sucker born every minute also for 500 you could have bought a oxcyetlnae oxygen welding set and gone to a junkyard and made a sword by yourself in whichever form you want with whichever weight you want
If you've actually read through this thread you will realize that OP is 100% serious and has already been given a replacement because he was too much of a pussy to go through with the charge back. See
>I spent 500 bucks
moron thread
how do you get someone to buy a pine plank for stupid?
pg 8 bump
I don't want this gem of a thread to die.
> coming soon
I sure love having splinters in my ass.
Ya gotta watch man the tiniest of pricks will still getcha

>two moar weeks

I'm not this anon btw this guy fricking lied
thank you anon. i still cant believe this thread is real. it plays out like a greek comedy
this is amazing
>this is amazing
Do you ever think this world isn't real sometimes?
>think this world isn't real sometimes
fricking wish
I bought an actual great sword for 250, wtf are you doing buying a training sword for 500?
>I can neither get refund, replacement, or repair
You can always get a charge back if you paid with credit cards.
someone already said about figuring out a steel plate and screwing it in? I don't see any other way
Getting scammed into buying a broken walmart kitchen counter wouldn't have happed if you had STUDIED THE BLADE.
OP has given up. Wipes his boogers right on his bedsheets, doesn't even fix his fitted sheet. Bet the house is a cat piss-soaked ruin. A fool and his money are soon parted.
Op is the guy who makes the swords. He broke one, decided to larp as a nerd (probably wasn’t much of a stretch, probably posts on PrepHole), and it probably paid off. I bet this drove a decent amount of traffic to his site and maybe even got him a sale or two
Holy frick you got scammed.
two cuts for flush sides, a drill, a steel rod and some glue
badda bing dont ever buy this kind of shit again
>be me
>go to hardware store
>go to wood area
>select a big ass piece of wood
>go to the cutting area
>ask them if they could cut it in sword shape
>they just do it for free
>get some sandpaper
>pay like 12 bucks and get home
>spend 1 hour sanding my sword
>now enjoying larping at the beach with my boys
ARE YOU FRICKNIG MENTALLY DISABLED OP?
op is probably the kind of guy to be afraid to talk to the men working at the hardware store. I imagine overpriced training swords and extremely insecure pansies go hand in hand
>>be me
reddit
Holy based, finally someone else that calls them out.
You are all just jealous and intimidated by OP's rugged manliness.
Looks like a massive cheese board made by a kid in woodwork who got a D-, wtf is this.
Drill hole, insert rod, glue, question life choices.
1. Start a hipster pandering business.
2. Profit obscenely.
holy shit, is this bait?
if not, sterilize yourself moron
so what does that weigh? like 500grams?
oh crap
Wowee, saw this thread on reddit. Epic!
kys bait Black person
you really spent 500 on that and the maker used fricking wood with a fricking knot for the most critical handle to blade junction? get your fricking money back whoever made that is a moron
