| Cold Steel Mizutori (Crane) Wakizashi (88CKW) |
Points: 10
|
The Crane is a symbol of luck and longevity, loyalty and strength, and is a much-loved symbol in Japan. As we developed a new Katana to add to our long standing and world-renowned line-up of Japanese blades, we felt it only fitting to add the Crane as a motif. The Mizutori (Crane) Katana is a high-end, high-performance blade that was inspired by older, practical battlefield Katanas

Cold Steel Dragonfly Katana
The classic Japanese battle sword in all its incarnations has been celebrated for centuries, not only for its elegant lines and simple beauty, but also for the technique and skill that went into its construction.
Most swords offered today are interpretive copies of antiquities from feudal Japan. They were made for warrior`s of small stature who seldom rose above five and a half feet. As skillfully designed as these swords are, they may not be perfectly suited for the twenty first century warrior, who benefited from contemporary advances in childhood nutrition and healthcare and grew up to be a substantially taller, stronger, and more athletic version of his historical counterpart.
As a way of compensating for this size disparity, Cold Steel has created the Dragonfly Series. These swords feature thicker, wider and heavier blades, which mirror our Imperial Series in respect to heat treatment, polish, quality of furnishings, and attention to detail, but with a few new departures.
Most noticeable are the distinctive teal-green silk cord-wrap and black samé (ray skin) used on the handles and the black iron furniture that bears the dragonfly motif. Also, the polished blades are more strongly curved than our Imperial blades and terminate in a long iris leaf point for maximum cutting and slashing potential. Additionally, these swords come with two protective bags. There is a blue travel bag and an intricately decorative display bag that`s made from the finest heavy silk metallic brocade.
Steel: 1060 High Carbon

| Cold Steel Sword - Warrior Chisa Katana (88BCK) |
Points: 20
|
Handle: 11 1/2" Samé (Ray Skin). black braid cord with brass Menuki
Steel: 1055 High Carbon
Sheath: Black Lacquered Wood w/blue violet cover bag
The Japanese swords of the Imperial Series have proven, since their initial introduction almost two years ago, to be quite 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 new Warrior Series addresses this problem directly. In our efforts to reduce the costliness of the blades, we have omitted the expensive mirror polishing that we used on the Imperial swords to create a new series of Japanese swords with a more practical finish. The Warrior Series swords are very handsome in their own right and share the same steel, heat treatment, and sharpness as their more expensive Imperial counterparts. Like the Imperial swords, they have Samé covered, cord wrapped handles and quality fittings.

| Landsknecht Katzbalger Sword Windlass (501825) |
Points: 15
|
Our Landsknecht Katzbalger Sword is just as battle ready as the originals. The beautifully rendered grip would do any Landskecht proud. The fluting in the pommel extends seamlessly into the wood grip, and the guard is expertly spiral twisted and terminates in half-spheres.

| Windlass Signature Series Towton Sword 1350-1400 (501893) |
Points: 15
|
In 1461, Edward IV led a Yorkist army against King Henry VI’s Lancastrians at Towton. A snowstorm favored the Yorkist archers, forcing 20,000 Lancastrians to charge downhill. Thousands died in one of England’s bloodiest battles. Named for that clash, our sword has a sharp, tapered blade, fine balance, and well-tempered steel.

| Windlass Saint Michael Sword (501896) |
Points: 10

This falchion has a sharp, broad, single‐edged, wide blade with a gentle curve toward the tip. Steel crossguard shaped into an elegant, almost S‐curving quillon on one side, while the other quillon is a simpler, shorter projection.

| Windlass Persian Scimitar 1700 (501899) |
Points: 10
|
The original scimitar was called a shamshir, (which meant "lion's tail") and had a deeply curved blade that was almost a half circle. Developed in Persia, this type of blade was effective for draw cuts, but other than that, of limited utility. This caused the blade to shift its shape into a more useful version, which we have chosen to copy.
