The Norman lust for battle and ravenous desire for land and treasure can, like their famous sword be undoubtedly traced to their Viking forefathers who wrenched their homeland in northwestern France from the hands of Charles the Simple in the Treaty of Saint-Clair-sur-Epte in 911 AD. Never satisfied with thier lot, it wasn't long before they once again took up their broad, double-edged swords and set sail across the English Channel to conquer Britian most famously, at the battle of Hastings in 1066 AD. Now Cold Steel is pleased to offer you their battle ready version of this famous sword.

In ancient Japan the Komoran was revered as a fearsome bird of prey. Fast and agile, sleek and silent, the Komoran delivered its fatal blow by driving its strong sharp bill through its prey. The Samurai warriors viewed the Komoran as an omen of good luck and strength. Many etched the symbol of the Komoran into the blades of their swords, believing it would harden the blade like the bill of the Komoran, provide courage in battle and deliver certain death to their enemies.
·600 layer carbon steel blade with a Komoran tang stamp
·Genuine rayskin handle with authentic cord wrapping and bamboo pegs
·Brass throat
·Black/antique brass finish cast metal guard and end cap
·Gold finish cast metal handle ornament
·41" overall
·Black lacquered wood scabbard with cord wrap
·Sateen sword bag included
INVESTMENT NOTE:
The Komoran swords are made to the highest quality using the same process from thousands
of years ago. Ancient Samurai sword makers used carbon steel as there was no stainless steel
at that time. Carbon steel is more prone to rusting so it requires some maintenance. Even
as your sword arrives, it may have small rust spots on it, but these will disappear with
standard blade polish. When storing or displaying your Komoran sword, it is
important you routinely care for the blade to prevent rusting.

Cold Steel uses only traditional materials for their Japanese sword's fittings. The Tsuba (guard), Fuchi (collar), and Kashira (pommel), are expertly made and finely crafted in nickel silver brass. The Habaki (blade collar) is hand made out of nickel-silver brass and the hilt is covered in Samé (ray skin) and tightly wrapped in the traditional style with black silk cord. A beautiful Menuki (a small ornamental sculpture inserted between the ray skin and the cord wrappings on the handle) enhances the sword's aesthetic appearance and makes for a sword that is as traditional looking as Cold Steel can possibly make it.

·Hand polished blade surface with distinctive mirror polish applied to fuller (blood groove)

According to most historians the Rapier first appeared on the sword scene in the late 14th century and held sway in most of Europe until the late 16th century except in Spain where it endured clear into the 18th century. The reason for its long reign as the civilian weapon of choice for self-defense and dueling can be tied to its two major advantages. First its long, slim, double edged blade was ideal for delivering point oriented blows at a great distance while still being able to deliver a stinging cut. And secondly, its continually evolving hilt of rings, bars, quillions, shells, and eventually, an intricately chiseled cup offered excellent protection (especially now that the armored gauntlet had been abandoned) and shed, caught or deflected blows at the sword hand and forearm with great aplomb.
·Polished 1055 carbon steel blade

Prior to World War II, the Butterfly Sword was virtually unknown outside of southern China. This changed at the close of the 1940's, when the Communists took control of mainland China, forcing many Kung Fu masters to flee the oppressive regime and establish new schools elsewhere. Currently, due to the spread of Kung Fu, these once obscure swords have become quite popular.
Typically, Butterfly Swords come in pairs that are cleverly nested together so they appear to be one sword not two. When they are drawn, they can be quickly separated and wielded in both hands to make wickedly effective chops, slashes and thrusts.
