Cold Steel Emperor Series Wakizashi Sword
Drawing from the traditional aesthetics of Japanese craftsmanship, this sword is crafted for enthusiasts who value exceptional precision and top-tier quality. The Wakizashi gained favor among wealthy peasants, as regulations permitted them to carry only this blade. In contrast, Samurai were granted the right to wield two swords — the katana and wakizashi — together forming the iconic set known as daisho.

Forged from 1060 carbon steel, the blade features a polished finish. The material has received heat treatment, delivering superior hardness and impact strength.
Wooden handle with silk braiding
The handle features a core of wood, wrapped in authentic stingray leather and finished with a classic black silk braid. This model is equipped with a decorative Tsuba (guard), Kashira (pommel), and Fuchi (collar), all expertly crafted from a silvery-white metal alloy. A meticulously carved brass Menuki detail is nestled beneath the braid, enhancing the unique character of the piece.
