Cold Steel Shamshir (88STS) |
Points: 20
|
The Shamshir originated in Persia and spread throughout the former Ottoman Empire and beyond into India and even the Philippines. Its strongly curved blade was enduringly popular and absolutely ideal for delivering a devastating cutting stroke. And, contrary to popular belief, it was very effective at delivering rising, descending and hooking style thrusts!
Typically, the curved Shamshir blade had a narrow cross section and a sharp point. It had a simple brass or steel crossbar hilt and an equally straightforward handle made from wood or animal horn that terminated in a distinctively bulbous pommel. This pommel was offset slightly to help the hand resist centrifugal force when making a hard cutting stroke.
Our version of this historic saber replicates the original as closely as possible. The only modifications were to substitute a modern high carbon steel for the blade and to use black faux buffalo horn for the handle. Even the scabbard is a close copy of the original. It’s made of thick, black leather (so it won’t dull the blade) and reinforced by a brass throat and chape, and comes complete with dual suspension rings.

Cold Steel 1796 Light Cavalry Saber |
|
Cold Steel 1796 Light Cavalry Saber. This saber was widely used by the British and their Prussian allies under General Blucher in the Battle of Waterloo. The blade was derived from the ferocious Indian Talwar and was reviled by the French who protested its use due to the horribly destructive wounds it inflicted.

Cold Steel Scottish Dirk (88SD) |
Points: 12
|
The Scottish Dirk that most knife enthusiasts are familiar with these days is, more or less, a piece of rubbish, a prop, a costume accessory for stage and screen. It's declined into a "knife like object" that people hang above their mantles or on the walls of dimly lit, wood-paneled dens.

Spyderco Salt I Black FRN Spyder Edge Folding Knife (C88SBK) |
Points: 4
|
Model Delica jest jednym z bestsellerów firmy Spyderco. Klienci wybierają ten model przede wszystkim dzięki jego rozsądnym wymiarom, uniwersalnemu kształtowi i sprawdzonej wytrzymałości. Sensownym ruchem było więc użycie do tego modelu stali H1, tak też się stało, wraz z kilkoma modyfikacjami. Model Salt I charakteryzuje się bardziej zaokrąglonym i grubszym czubkiem. Ponieważ stal H1 została opracowana głównie do użytku w wilgotnym środowisku, wprowadzono właśnie zaokrąglony czubek, który w większym stopniu sprawdza się w pracach związanych z rybołówstwem czy żeglugą.
