Product information "John Lee Shirasaya Katana"

Shirasaya refers to a special sword mount, which was formerly used for the gentle keeping of the blade. Especially in times of peace the blades were ideal protected stored in it. The unvarnished Magnolia wood absorbs the moisture inside the sheath, leads it to the outside and thus protects against rust. Many Shirasaya were provided with a "Sayagaki", an inscription, which gave information on smith, origin and classification. On the streets of Japan, the inconspicuous gear without handle and guard, especially in the late 19th Century was used because at that time the Emperor banned the carrying of Samurai swords. The Shirasaya mount, which was similar to a wooden sword or wooden stick was a clever way to wear the sword unnoticed.

Blade in Shinogi Zukuri style with fuller (Bo-Hi), hand-forged from 1045 carbon steel. The blade is sharp grounded with incorporated Hamon-line for a very authentic look.

Wooden scabbard.

With long tang, which is fixed with two bamboo pins (Mekugi) in the handle. The sword is thus fully demountable. Without plastic, only high-quality and authentic materials are used. Blade clamp (Habaki) and washers (Seppa) are made of brass. The traditional handle wrapping is lined with genuine ray skin. All decorations (Tsuba, Fuchi, Menuki, Kashira) are handmade from metal. A protective case made of fabric, a John Lee seal and a certificate are within the scope of supply.

Gladius Thrower

Cold Steel President Lynn C Thompson has been training and experimenting with throwing knives for over three decades. Although Lynn has trained competition style throwing, his personal interests have always been grounded in combative application. As a martial artist he has always been fascinated by the use of throwing weapons to distract or wound while evading or closing distance. As such, he rarely stands still and throws from a mark. His throwing is often made at speed and while running, dodging or fighting. Therefore, he has long been interested in designing and creating a combative knife that would also serve as an instinctive (and highly effective) throwing knife. It was with that in mind, that Lynn designed what we call our Gladius Thrower. It's solid, one-piece tempered steel blade can easily be sharpened and paracord wrapped to create a very functional knife, but it's wide "Roman Point" and superb balance make it an excellent thrower even at extended distances. Designed to stick with either its sturdy point or tapered butt, the Gladius Thrower makes a fun and unusual sport thrower as well as a combative option! Throwing flat and hitting hard with a satisfying "thunk" it’s sure to be an unusual and much talked about edition to any throwers collection. Specifications: Weight: 10.7 oz. Blade Thickness: 5 mm Blade Length: 8 1/4" Handle: 5 3/4" Long. Overall: 14" This is an item from the Cold Steel program in 2015
