CS88BOK: Warrior Series | O Katana

Cold Steel

 

The Japanese swords of the Emperor Series have proven, since their initial introduction almost five years ago, to be quite popular with many Cold Steel customers. Still, they are aware that there are some people who want a battle-ready sword but hope to find one at a more affordable price. The Warrior Series addresses this problem directly. In their efforts to reduce the costliness of the blades, Cold Steel has omitted the expensive mirror polishing used on their Emperor Swords to create a 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 Emperor counterparts. Like the Emperor swords, they have Samé covered, cord wrapped handles and quality fittings. If you're in the market for a strong, good looking, reasonably priced Japanese sword we know you'll be happy to own one of these. All come complete with a black lacquered scabbard and a blue/violet cover bag.

arrived rusted, chipped, frayed and slightly bent.
Arrived with 5 or 6 small pitts in the blade each rusting, paint chip in scabbard, frayed handle wrapping and both a small bend in the blade and a twist.

Cold Steel Warrior Series O Katana 36"
I agree with the other reviewers for this Cold Steel sword. I'm no sword expert but this thing doesn't feel like a toy. I would not want to be on the receiving end of this thing. As another reviewer said, the brass could be better but I didn't buy this sword as a wall hanger show piece. This is a tool and should come in handy if movie grade Zombies ever invade the neighborhood. Until then it should work well for harvesting wheat.

Pros: Blade Material, Handle Material, Overall Quality, Materials, Usable
Cons: Finish
The only thing I can find about this sword I don't like is the finish of the brass on the handle area. I will probably never use this for anything other than look at but it is very sharp and sturdy.
