Cold Steel Hand and Half Sword Black 33.5in Satin Plain Blade

The Cold Steel Hand and a Half Sword, often referred to as the "Bastard" sword, combines versatility with unmatched effectiveness. Known for its balance of speed, strength, and control, this weapon stands out as a formidable choice for both offense and defense. Its 33.5-inch blade is expertly crafted from 1060 carbon steel, boasting a spring temper that enhances durability without compromising on flexibility. Fully sharpened edges and a penetrating point underscore its combat-readiness, while its satin finish adds a refined touch.

Designed for adaptability, the Hand and a Half Sword features a long handle that accommodates both one- and two-handed grips, empowering users with flexibility in various combat scenarios. The handle itself is meticulously fashioned from solid wood, wrapped in rich black leather for a secure and comfortable grip, and fitted with a nickel silver guard. Completing the grip is a "scent stopper" pommel, which not only balances the sword but adds a classic, dignified look. At 45.5 inches overall and weighing a substantial 50 ounces, this sword strikes the perfect balance between heft and maneuverability, offering a commanding presence without sacrificing speed.

For those seeking a complete set, Cold Steel offers an optional companion dagger, designed to mirror the sword in both appearance and quality. This scaled-down counterpart is ideal as an off-hand parrying weapon, yet it’s impressive enough to stand alone as a distinguished sidearm. Whether worn as part of a historical ensemble or used for practical training, the dagger adds functional versatility to the collection.

Each Hand and a Half Sword and its optional dagger come with expertly crafted black leather scabbards. These scabbards feature robust steel throat and chape fittings, ensuring both durability and style in one seamless package. The attention to detail in the materials and construction reflects Cold Steel’s commitment to quality, delivering weapons that are as reliable as they are visually impressive.
