Super Sharp High Carbon Blade – Includes Leather Scabbard!The Shamshir originated in Persia and and features a strongly curved blade that was endearingly popular and absolutely ideal for delivering a devastating cutting stroke. Typically, the curved Shamshir blade had a narrow cross section and a sharp point. It had a simple brass or steel crossbar hilt and an equally straightforward handle made from wood or animal horn that terminated in a distinctively bulbous pommel. This pommel was offset slightly to help the hand resist centrifugal force when making a hard cutting stroke. This version from Cold Steel replicates the original as closely as possible. Modern high carbon steel is used for the blade and black faux buffalo horn for the handle. The scabbard (included) is made of thick, black leather (so it won’t dull the blade) and reinforced by a brass throat and chape, and comes complete with dual suspension rings.This is a sharpened battle ready sword. You must be at least 18 to order this sword.
