Cold Steel CS-88BCK Chisa
Katana, Warrior Version. The
Japanese swords of the Cold Steel Imperial Series have proven, since their
initial introduction almost two years ago, to be quite popular with many
of our customers. Still, we are aware that there are some people who want
a battle ready sword but hope to find one at a more affordable price.
Cold Steel's new Warrior Series addresses this problem directly. To reduce
the costliness of the blades, they have omitted the expensive mirror
polishing used on the Imperial swords to create a new 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 Imperial counterparts. Like the Imperial
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.
