The
Schmitthenner Armory presents the work of Cold Steel ®
Craftsmen
who genuinely appreciate the
integrity
of the blade
Offering
their blades to indiscriminate testing, the craftsmen of these exquisitely
crafted weapons presented them to the harshest of trials along with numerous
competitors. The results were astounding. Shattered blades and broken tangs
fell by the wayside as these finely crafted pieces held strong.
Every Hand-and-a-Half
Sword reflects the highest standards in workmanship and materials.
For a sword of this size, it’s amazingly light and fast and tips the
scales at approximately 3 lbs. Its 33 1/2" long blade is quite
wide so it can produce deep shearing type cuts. To balance the long
blade we have capped the butt with a beautiful “scent stopper” pommel
which can be a lethal weapon in its own right. 33/2" blade, 42
5/8" overall
The typical Viking
sword of the 9th and 10th centuries featured a long wide blade with
a broad central fuller and two keen edges. Cold Steel’s Viking Sword
has features in common with its historical counterpart. It has a double
edged blade, hand forged out of high carbon steel and then polished
to a brilliant lustre. The wooden handle is covered in leather and
is supported by a simple, elegant guard at one end and an equally
handsome 5 lobed pommel at the other. Both guard and pommel feature
traditional Celtic knot embellishments. 36 7/8" overall
The medium weight
saber Cold Steel offers is a cavalry trooper’s chosen weapon. It posses
excellent cutting and slashing capability and still remains useful
for a thrust. In fact, it was so popular that it remained in use long
after Napoleon’s star had fallen and was wielded by both sides in
our own Civil War. The thick, moderately curved blade is forged out
of 1050 Carbon steel and features a long, wide fuller and a very sharp,
practical point. The grip of the 1830 Napoleon Saber is equally well
made. It is wrapped in black leather and strongly protected by a stout,
brass three bar hilt. The whole package comes with a heavy duty polished
steel scabbard with dual rings so it can be easily attached to your
baldric or sword belt.

carbon steel. It’s 1 1/2" wide and comes fully sharpened and
battle-ready, prepared to hew down any foe. The attractive Rosewood
