Competition Cutting Sword - Cold Steel

Explore the cutting potential of Western swords with the Cold Steel Competition Cutting Sword, a dedicated medieval blade designed for competitions involving soft targets like rope, mailing tubes, and tatami mats. Traditionally inspired by the Arbedo, this sword is tailored for the demands of cutting contests, showcasing its prowess in slicing through various materials.

The thin, wide, double-edged blade is meticulously hand-forged from 1050 high carbon steel, featuring a hard spring temper. Delivered fully sharpened and polished, it is ready to meet the challenges of cutting competitions. The substantial leather-covered wood handle provides maximum control and leverage, accommodating one or both hands for precise and powerful cutting feats.

For protection and deflection against opposing blades, the sword is equipped with a simple yet effective double quillon steel guard. To counterbalance its wide blade, an attractive flared, lozenge-shaped steel pommel is included. The entire sword is encased in a thick and sturdy black leather scabbard, complete with matching steel throat and chape, ensuring both functionality and aesthetics.
