Cold Steel Chinese Saber

China has had a long history in wars, and other events which led to the creation of some unique weaponry. The Chinese Saber, for example, is just that sort of weapon: a horseman’s saber that is equally adaptable by foot soldiers in the field. Our Chinese Saber is hand forged from high carbon steel. The blade features a single ¾ length fuller and is moderately curved along its length, terminating in an upswept point, making it ideal for cutting and slashing without giving up its thrusting potential. The hilt features a solid brass disc guard, deeply engraved in the classical style. The handle has a hardwood core and is braided with black silk cord and capped with a brass bolster and pommel. The scabbard is fashioned in hardwood and covered in black leather and features brass decorative fittings. While doubtlessly a Chinese Saber in style, this sword could easily work for any Steppe warrior re-enactor and is particularly well-suited to Mongolian, Chinese, Manchurian re-enactors, and martial artists.
