Added pics and specs to CS-90TH Cold Steel Trail Hawk

Modeled after an early frontier pattern, our Trail Hawk can do it all. It’s an excellent chopper and has a functional hammer poll with a hardened face so you can drives nails, hammer in stakes, and smash or crush just about anything. Best of all it’s extremely lightweight and compact so it’s a cinch to tuck it under your belt or lash it to a pack or shooting bag.

Added pics and specs to CS-90RH Cold Steel Rifleman’s Hawk

Cold Steel’s tomahawks are both reminiscent of early American designs. The Rifleman’s Hawk offers a “peace pipe” appearance that was commonly used by Native Americans. It has two sticking points on its cutting edge for throwing and throws extremely well. The Rifleman’s Hawk has a traditional American hammer-head style butt for hammering stakes.

Added pics and specs to CS-90N Cold Steel Norse Hawk

Capturing the Viking spirit, the Norse Hawk’s 4″ blade features a highly curved cutting edge and terminates in two sharp points. These points increase the chance of a stick when the Norse Hawk is thrown.

Added pics and specs to CS-88WGS Cold Steel Two Handed Great Sword

Our Two Handed Great Sword is the biggest sword we make. But don’t let its size fool you, as there is nothing awkward or clumsy about this awesome sword. Sure it’s big and meant to be carried over the shoulder instead of in a scabbard, but it’s extremely well balanced and easily wielded by people of larger stature and physical strength.

Added pics and specs to CS-88VS Cold Steel Viking Sword

The typical Viking sword of the 9th and 10th centuries featured a long wide blade with a broad central fuller and two keen edges. The preferred stroke was a hard slash or chopping blow, so the point was fairly rounded but was just acute enough to be useful for thrusting. A simple guard with forward curving quillions was often utilized and combined with an equally utilitarian wooden handle that was covered with leather, bone, or even cast in brass.

Added pics and specs to CS-88STS Cold Steel Shamshir

The Shamshir originated in Persia and spread throughout the former Ottoman Empire and beyond into India and even the Philippines. Its strongly curved blade was enduringly popular and absolutely ideal for delivering a devastating cutting stroke. And, contrary to popular belief, it was very effective at delivering rising, descending and hooking style thrusts!

Added pics and specs to CS-88SMS Cold Steel Small Sword

The advantage of the sword point over the edge became increasingly evident by the end of the 16th century. The Rapier, with its long, elegantly thin profile which emphasized its point, became the popular choice in civilian self-defense. It was however a somewhat unwieldy weapon especially when it was used in narrow, crowded streets and alleyways. Eventually a more sophisticated, shorter and lighter version emerged that by the end of the 17th century had evolved into an entirely new weapon, the Small Sword.

Added pics and specs to CS-88SD Cold Steel Scottish Dirk

The Scottish Dirk that most knife enthusiasts are familiar with these days is, more or less, a piece of rubbish— a prop—a costume accessory for stage and screen. It’s declined into a “knife like object” that people hang above their mantles or on the walls of dimly lit, wood-paneled dens. Our version is a modern replica that harkens back to an earlier form, when the dirk was a functioning tool and weapon. The 13″ blade is forged to a hard spring temper from 1055 Carbon steel. It’s 11/2″ wide and comes fully sharpened and battle-ready, prepared to hew down any foe.

Added pics and specs to CS-88SB Cold Steel Scottish Broad Sword

The traditional weapon of the highland clansman, the Scottish Broadsword has sown fear into the hearts of Englishmen for centuries. Its long, two edged blade and distinctive basket hilt, when combined with targe and dirk has proved more than a match for enemy soldiers on battlefields around the world.
