Break

Break is one canonical Sword identity. No current official technical sheet could be confirmed, so hardness, thickness and colour options are left empty rather than estimated.

Approval evidence and market availability are recorded separately. A name listed by an approval source is not proof that the rubber is currently on sale, and a rubber on sale is not proof of a current approval. Approval is never inherited by a suffix or edition, and no expiry date is invented.

Market status describes current commercial availability only. Where it could not be verified it stays unknown rather than being guessed from a shop listing.

Printed hardness values are manufacturer figures on the maker's own scale. A printed Chinese degree is not assumed to equal an ESN degree, and no hardness is inferred from a product code or a sponge colour.

No reliable official Sword list price is published per region, so no price is shown rather than an invented one.

Generations are never merged automatically. Paladin II and Scylla III are their own records, and no specification is copied between generations of the same name.

Variants and configurations

1 variant

Colour, thickness and configuration are variants of one model — never separate products. Colour never changes a rating, MAX and OX stay qualitative labels, and OX carries no sponge hardness.
