Cold Steel Sword - Warrior Wakizashi (88BWW) |
Points: 19
|
Handle: 6 1/2" Samé (Ray Skin). black braid cord with brass Menuki
Steel: 1055 High Carbon
Sheath: Black Lacquered Wood Scabbard
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.

Hanwei Miyamoto Musashi Wakizashi (SH1017) |
Points: 20
|
During the Muromachi period (1568-1603), the introduction of the pairing of the Katana (the curved sword) and Wakizashi was introduced. The Wakizashi, or the shorter companion blade to the Katana, was about 18 inches long. Only the warrior class - the Samurai - was allowed to wear the two swords, which remained a custom for the next several hundred years until abolished in the 19th century. This Wakizashi is the companion piece to the Musashi Miyamoto Katana (SH1016) with matching fittings and blade construction. Supplied with a protective cloth bag and traditional maintenance kit.
