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.

Cold Steel Sword Colichemarde (88CLMS) |
Points: 30
|
The Colichemarde emerged on the sword scene in the late 1600's during the decline of the Rapier and the rise of the small sword. Its long suit was its uniquely shaped blade that was extra wide at the forte then stepped down or narrowed for the rest of its length before ending in a wicked point. The advantage of this configuration was it allowed the sword to be used to parry or oppose even the heaviest weapons without breaking, yet remain light and supple enough to take full advantage of its lightning quick point.

Additionally, we have also taken the liberty of creating a matching dagger for The Colichemarde small sword with a stiff, beautifully ground and polished blade, double quillions, and wire wrapped handle.

Cold Steel Ribbed Shell Swept Hilt Rapier (88CHR) |
Points: 30
|
Sadly, while never proven ineffective or obsolete, the rapier eventually succumbed to the dictates of fashion and gave way to the emerging small sword. Happily Cold Steel has chosen to revive the Rapier with our own interpretation designed by Dave Baker. The long, narrow blade is fully sharpened and beautifully polished with a single wide fuller at the forte to assure perfect balance. The hilt also reflects the best in craftsmanship and materials fashioned from stainless steel featuring a classic ribbed shell and multiple bars, quillions and knuckle bow for unparalleled hard protection. The grip itself is made of wood covered with rich black ray skin and decorative wire and terminates in a heavy ribbed pommel that serves as a counter balance to our Rapier's long blade.

Cold Steel Sword Italian Long Sword (88ITS) |
Points: 29
|
The era of the long sword spanned almost three centuries (approximately 1350 to 1650). This, undoubtedly, was because it really worked! It featured a distinctive cruciform hilt and a long, double edged blade and was equally adept at opposing both light and heavily armored foes. You see, its extra long blade offered the reach and leverage for powerful stabbing, cutting and chopping strokes while its long cross guard and heavy pommel were useful for hooking, striking and smashing.

Cold Steel Dagger Italian Dagger (88ITD) |
Points: 14
|
Since our Italian Long Sword is light and well balanced enough to use in one hand we thought we'd offer a companion dagger to take the place of a shield, targe, or buckler. Scaled down in size but almost identical in appearance, its sharply tapered, double edged blade slightly favors attacks with the point over the edge and is stiff and strong enough to parry any sword.

Cold Steel Battle Gim (88FG) |
Points: 25
|
The Battle Gim is forged from our best DAMASCUS STEEL by talented smiths, it features a broad symmetrical point and a slightly wider, heavier blade than custom would dictate. This gives it a more pronounced blade-heavy balance making its twin razor-sharp edges slightly more suitable for cutting and slashing than thrusting.
The attractive Rosewood hilt is framed by a blackened iron guard and pommel. They're embellished with an intricate filigree of traditional Chinese Peony flowers and leaves. The matching Rosewood scabbard is styled in a similar fashion on its chape, throat and ring mounts.

Cold Steel Mini Buckler (92BKPA) |
|
Mini Buckler by Cold Steel. The fist-sized Mini Buckler is smaller and more maneuverable at deflecting blows than our larger models. Its size gives it distinct blocking and defense advantages in situations where a larger buckler might be an impediment.

Cold Steel Soldiers Targe Shield (92BKPL) |
Points: 4
|
Cold Steel Soldiers Targe Shield. New for 2020, our Soldier's Targe. While very similar to our Medieval Buckler, it's about twice the size and just as stout and reliable. Appropriate for training with all non steel swords, its sure to provide years of hard service.

Cold Steel Medieval Buckler (92BKPB) |
Points: 3
|
Medieval Buckler by Cold Steel. Essentially, a Buckler is a small shield about the size of a large dinner plate. It often accompanied a swordsman as an aid in defense. The Cold Steel training replica is stoutly made and has a thick, sturdy, raised boss to protect the hand, and a rugged handle that will withstand plenty hard of use.
Always wear eye protection and appropriate equipment when training.
Not for use when training against metal weapons.

Cold Steel Balicki Stick (91EB) |
|
Cold Steel Balicki Stick. Slimmer, shorter, and substantially lighter than our standard Escrima Stick, it exhibits Rons preference for speed and agility. Its made from high impact virgin Polypropylene and has a subtle wood grain finish. Rons name is featured in brilliant silver and there are silver bands at each end for visibility and style. Its a must have training stick for anyone interested in the Filipino Martial Arts.

Cold Steel Pocket Shark (91SPB) |
Points: 1
|
Cold Steel Pocket Shark. As the saying goes, "the pen is mightier than the sword." Indeed, Cold Steel makes some mighty strong swords, but this little pen makes for some clever competition. It's the biggest, baddest, permanent marker around!

Cold Steel Koga SD1 (91K) |
Points: 1
|
Made of virtually unbreakable plastic, the SD1 can increase the ability of the average person to defend himself several times over. With proper training, it can function as a fantastic aid in leverage when obtaining joint locks or submission holds. But where it really shines is as an intermediate impact tool. You see, police and civilians alike face a perplexing dilemma when contemplating employing fist or baton blows. Blows struck with the fist may be too weak, or worse, result in a broken hand, while blows struck with a baton may be too powerful resulting in grave injury or even death. The SD1 however, solves this problem, neatly bridging the gap by concentrating and magnifying the effect of hand blows while minimizing the likelihood of permanent injury or death. If you are looking to expand your continuum of force options in a self-defense situation, we heartily suggest you buy a Koga SD1.
