This rustic-style Wooden Toy Sword, made from reclaimed barn wood in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, is both a timeless toy and small piece of American history. The wood is sustainably sourced from retired hay and orchard barns that may be slated for demolition or controlled burning, or simply decades of deterioration. By salvaging the wood from these historic structures, local craftsmen are able to earn a livelihood while sharing the beauty of natural aged wood. Since it is handmade, every sword is unique with its own characteristics. The sword you receive may look identical to the product listing photo, or slightly different. Some have wormy lines running down the blade while others might sport dark nail holes. You might see original saw mill marks on the wood as well. Typical woods used are Tulip Poplar (dark green to white, often "wormy,"); Heart Pine (white to tan with darker lines running through it); and Oak (especially used in the hilts, it's brown with streaks of black, a tight grained, very hard wood). These swords are completely natural, non-toxic, unfinished and chemical-free. They are sturdy and ready for pretend play ... even if that means lots of time on the battlefield.
