Indeed. The bokken isn't rubber, its poly carbonate. (Misleading last post, just the knife is rubber)
Was expecting it to be a little weaker than it is. But you can strike really solid objects and it just keeps it shape. Already destroyed 3 boxes. The end is also for some reason strong enough to pierce its way through multiple layers of thick cardboard when you stab with it LOL.
Anyone looking at cold steel training products, DO IT.
Tempted to get another sword so i can have little battles with my brother XD Wanting an actual Tanto (Because tantos are just sexy) from them so might just wait til i have the cash for that. As of next month i'll have -£300 to my name unless i find a job soon XD

Most sites operate with a "it must bend about 70-90degrees" so no, these things are very rigid, so not really skirmish friendly.
I'm pretty sure my local site will allow me to use it during our private games when we book out their sites though. They know us to be safe and responsible.
Really it can't do any damage than an airsoft gun can. Yes its pointy and solid, but walk round a corner with a rifle and poke someone in the face, that's going to do a lot of damage too. Especially with some of the flash hider designs around.

They allow Cold Steel training swords at the GZ Weekender. I have one of these:
It's a semi-permanent part of my loadouts. Although knives and bayonets aren't allowed at ordinary games at my local site, they allow me to carry it for the cool factor - I just don't use it. Night games are a different story though
I suspect that they don't care how rigid it is because I'm 45: I'm not going to go all adrenaline monster and accidentally ram it through somebody's throat! There are rules for knife/melee weapon kills though. Usually it's that you just tap the target. For stealth kills, you tap the target and whisper "knife kill" in their ear and they don't shout "hit".

Kamysh Assault Vest from Russia, £65 inc. postage. My black balaclava, looks like 
h34r: and self-adhesive velcro strips turned up today, though they are white. Is fine for the backing of the patch, but need it ideally to be a more military colour. I'm thinking food colouring, bowl, splishy-splash, huzzah. In that order.

How can they not allow rubber knives??? Kill joysThey allow Cold Steel training swords at the GZ Weekender. I have one of these:

Need to buy another rubber bayonet. Lost the last one after i walked into a tree. Fits on the G36 quite nicely, however doesn't lock unless you file down the plastic.

Yeah I know, but they let us use them at night and let's be real, how often can you get close enough to someone in daylight for a knife kill? Pretty much only if you're hiding behind cover as they pass, right? But at night... der der duh der, der der duh der... we enter the twiglet zone! I'm not so sure I want some of the kids we get running around with rubber bayonets on their guns either :lol: I don't know how of the top of my head, but I know it would end in tears!
Is that the standard rubber M4 bayonet that needs filing to fit a G36?
Edit: oh yeah, I just bought 2 x King Arms 200rd High Capacity BB Loader - BK - £8.43 delivered from AirsoftTiger111Hk (they're on sale and the supporter's discount is worth a whole 0.30 USD)
Also bought 10 pk of 20mm ladder lock buckles for webbing from fleabay - £1.98 (for custom PLCE webbing)
And a pair of Black CS95 kecks from Magnum for a nice fair price.
And an A&K 50rnd Mid Cap Mag for Dragunov SVD - £18.98 inc P&P from Action Hobbies
And an OD Soviet Star Cap Badge - £2.30 from cosmixx_one on fleabay

I'm thinking about possibly getting one of these (or their P229), so I'd be very interested to hear your opinions on how it is.
Picked up a Madbull 510mm 6.01mm tightbore, systema rubber and nub and some other parts. Hopefully I'll get my L85 shooting more that 6 metres...
