Cold Steel 88BN Warrior Series Nodachi 34" 1060 Carbon Blade, Samé (Ray Skin) Handle with Black Braid Cord and Brass Menuki

Since their initial introduction, Cold Steel's Emperor Series swords have proven to be popular with many of their customers. Still, they are aware that there are some people who want a battle ready sword but hope to find one at a more affordable price. The Warrior Series addresses this problem directly. The Warrior Series swords share the same high-performance 1060 steel, heat treatment, and sharpness as their Emperor counterparts, but they have omitted their expensive mirror polishing in favor of a more practical finish. This makes the Warrior Series a perfect choice for training and perfecting cutting techniques (Tameshigiri) without damaging or tarnishing the blade.
