  • Publication number: 20040198173
    Abstract: A simulated sharp edged sparring weapon with a simulated blade, having a channel ingrained along one or both edges thereof or a chalk retaining member removably attached to the blade. The weapon is used to mark with ink, chalk, or other marking material. A marking-compound retaining and wicking member is seated within each channel, and a handle is attached to the blade. Each marking-compound retaining and wicking member preferably comprises a strip of material adhered along the edge of the blade. A reservoir, for containing ink, is within the weapon and is in fluid communication with the marking-compound-retaining and wicking member. The weapon includes a means for urging ink from the reservoir onto the marking-compound-retaining and wicking member. Chalk applied liberally to the marking-compound retaining member will adhere thereto until it comes into contact with another surface, whereupon it marks said surface.
