Cold Steel Gold Lion Wakizashi Sword
Sword crafted with inspiration from traditional Japanese design elements, intended for enthusiasts who demand outstanding precision and superior quality. The Wakizashi gained favor among wealthy peasants, as it was the sole sword permitted for their use. In contrast, Samurai were authorized to carry two swords—the katana and wakizashi—which together comprised the renowned set known as daisho.
polished blade made of pattern-welded damascus
The blade is crafted from pattern-welded damascus, renowned for its exceptional toughness. Featuring a Hamaguri grind, the blade is complemented by a Lori Mune spine and a distinctive Hamon temper line. Final touches include expert polishing for a refined finish.
Wooden handle with silk braid
The handle is crafted from wood, overlaid with same (ray skin), and wrapped in a traditional black silk braid. The design showcases a decorative tsuba (guard), kashira (pommel), and fuchi (collar), all constructed from an iron alloy and adorned with 24K gold accents. Hidden beneath the braid lies a carved menuki detail portraying the Japanese Shisa (Lion Dog), lending the model a distinct character.
polished wooden scabbard
The high-gloss finished black wooden scabbard (saya) includes a cord for secure attachment to your belt, ensuring comfortable sword carry.
