Cold Steel 88BKW Katana, Ray Skin Handle, Wood Scabbard, One Size

Description

Since their initial introduction, Cold Steel’s Emperor
Series swords have proven to be popular with many of our customers. Still, we
are aware that there are some people who want a battle ready sword but hope to
find one at a more affordable price. Our Warrior Series addresses this problem
directly. The Warrior Series swords share the same high-performance 1060
steel, heat treatment, and sharpness as their Emperor counterparts, but we
have omitted their expensive mirror polishing in favor of a more practical
finish. This makes the Warrior Series a perfect choice for training and
perfecting cutting techniques (Tameshigiri) without damaging or tarnishing the
blade. The intricate, Japanese warrior-inspired detail work is
impressive. Creative cutlery company Cold Steel’s ever-popular Warrior Series
swords are delicately-designed, durably-crafted blades with the same steel,
heat treatment, and remarkably keened blades as the company’s more expensive
Emperor Series. Like the Emperor swords, they boast Samé-covered, cord-wrapped
handles and quality fittings, and additionally come complete with a black
lacquered scabbard and soft blue cover bag. Specifications 29.25-inch 1055
