Our Two Handed Great Sword is the biggest sword Cold Steel makes. But don’t let its size fool you, as there is nothing awkward or clumsy about this awesome sword. Sure it’s big and meant to be carried over the shoulder instead of in a scabbard, but it’s extremely well balanced and easily wielded by people of larger stature and physical strength. Weighing 6 lbs. 13.5 oz. with a 39 7/8″ high carbon steel blade, it will make short work of pikemen or swordsmen and will prove equally effective against modern rifle butts and bayonets. To protect the hands from opposing weapons, it features a large guard with side rings plus integral parrying hooks that allow the blade to be shortened for close range slashing and stabbing attacks. The handle is made of wood and covered with leather and is extra long to afford a full two handed grip. What’s more, it’s capped by a heavy steel pommel that helps counter balance its long blade and serves as an effective weapon in its own right. Each sword comes with a thin edge that will really bite (traditionally Great Swords were never fully sharpened) and is totally battle ready. We’re sure you will be thrilled with its fantastic fit and finish. If you’re looking for the ultimate in big performance oriented swords, your search is over. Overall Length: 55-1/4″ Blade Length: 39-7/8″ Thickness: 7/32″ Weight: 109.5 oz. Steel: 1050 Carbon Steel Scabbard: none included
Cold Steel, Incorporated was founded in 1980, a company dedicated to making the strongest, sharpest knives in the world. Superblades has been a retailer of Cold steel’s for over 15 years now and we are convinced they are among the best knives and swords in the world.
Over the last three decades, Cold Steel has been at the forefront of the many innovations that have helped to define the knife industry as a whole. Progressive accomplishment, including the introduction of the checked Kraton® handles, and the tanto point blade styles have gone from curiously interesting features to industry-wide hallmarks of quality and sophistication. New ground was also broken with the introduction of unique new blade steels like San Mai III® and Tri-Ad™ Lock & locking mechanism for folding knives. Tri-Ad™ Lock for example, has never been equaled by any of Cold Steel's competitors and nothing they have produced yet has been proven to outperform it.
We have tested the Tri-Ad lock here as well and found it to be second to none in strength and durability.
Of course, Cold Steel will always look to the future, constantly striving to make the world's strongest, sharpest knives. That goal as elusive and difficult to achieve as it is, has been the same for the past thirty years. We here at Superblades will always continue to support and represent Cold Steel as a premium brand.
