Cold Steel 88ABK Gold Lion Katana 30" Damascus Blade
Description
CS88ABK: Gold Lion Katana
Cold Steel
The Cold Steel Gold Lion Katana represents a Samurai's "every day carry sword" for personal protection, and the defense of his Lord, his family and his home. Significantly lighter than some of Cold Steel's other heavier-duty katanas, it is not only faster in-hand, but easier and more comfortable to carry when tucked into an Obi and worn all day.
The Katana's Menuki bears the symbol of the Japanese Shisa (Lion Dog) a guardian or protector - a fitting motif for this beautiful lightweight sword.
Measuring just under thirty inches, the Gold Lion Katana's blade is made from expertly hand honed and highly polished Damascus steel, with a Hamaguri grind, peaked Iori Mune spine and undulating clay-tempered Hamon.
The black iron Tsuba, Fuchi and Kashira all have gleaming 24 karat gold leaf accents and the handle features white ray-skin and a black silk cord wrap.
