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.
