Product information "Cinquedea"

The Cinquedea [Ching-kwi-dey-uh] has held a long fascination for us here at Cold Steel. It gained popularity as the sidearm of choice for noblemen walking through the narrow alleyways and walled cities of Italy. A blade worn exclusively for civilian self-defense, it was essentially the precursor to the civilian side sword and the rapier – and yet, this instrument of personal protection seems to have owed much of its design to fashion as it did to the cut and thrust of mortal combat!

Surviving examples of these unusual short handled and steeply tapered blades are often highly embellished and ornate. With etched or gilded blades and deep multiple fullers that border on jewelry rather than weaponry – but beneath the romanticisms of high renaissance fashion lay a tool made with purpose. A wide, stiff cut and thrust blade that could be brought into play in confined spaces, and deliver a mortal wound!

Our interpretation of the Cinquedea is made from expertly heat treated 1055 Carbon steel with a highly engraved guard and pommel, and a hand-carved rosewood grip. The Cinquedea is sold complete with a leather scabbard with engraved steel throat and chape.

Sehr schöne gut balancierte Waffe. Qualität für Cold Steel höher als gewohnt. Schärfe auf Niveau der Cold Steel Macheten - war aber leicht zu korrigieren :-) Versand und Lieferung in gewohnt sehr guter swords-and-more Qualität - an dieser Stelle auch mal Dank dafür.

Maa La Fontaine Sword of War

Designed by noted swordsman Luke LaFontaine and bearing his name, the LaFontaine Sword of War combines elements of a 16th Century “Sword of War” with a “Complex Hilt Longsword”. Not carried on a belt or baldric, rather it was held in hand, rested on the shoulder or simply carried by a manservant or page. Designed primarily for battlefield combat, it was almost as big as a Zweihander or a Great Sword; with a long double edged blade, elaborate ring guards, counter guards and peaked quillons, a closed ricasso for looping a finger through the cross for added control, and a heavy counter-balancing pommel that made a fearsome weapon in its own right! A versatile and complex weapon with many advantages that should be apparent to any Historical European Martial Artist, it was also a symbol of prestige that said much about the status and prowess of its wielder. Made in our signature “Man at Arms” style, the LaFontaine Sword of War features a 1055 Carbon Steel blade that has been deeply blued to an inky black sheen. The LaFontaine Sword of War is fully sharpened and supplied complete with a thick leather and steel scabbard. Specifications: Blade Length: 37 1/2" Blade Thick: 1/4" Overall Length: 52" Weight: 78.5 oz Handle: 14 1/2" Steel: 1050 High Carbon This is an item from the Cold Steel program in 2016.

Diamond Spontoon Hawk

While most tomahawks are chopping tools there was a less popular alternative known as a spontoon hawk. Made with a blade expressly designed for piercing it was capable of delivering deep puncture wounds that were quite lethal. Often found with a sloping or diamond shaped point and sharpened on both sides the Spontoon hawk offered little to no utility value but was undeniable a fearsome and brutally effective weapon. Today modern made spontoon hawks are extremely rare (outside of the cheapest quality imports) so we decided to remedy the situation with our own models. Available in faux pipe hawk style they feature classic sloping and diamond shaped blades that can be fully sharpened! Details: WEIGHT 28.4 oz. HANDLE American Hickoy STEEL / MATERIAL Drop Forged 1055 Carbon OVERALL 22" Long This is an item from the Cold Steel program in 2020.

Tactical Katana Machete

Fully sharpened right here in our Ventura HQ, the Tactical Katana Machete comes complete with a Cor-Ex™ back sheath for ease of carry and storage. Specifications: Weight: 35.2 oz.

Rondel Dagger

Cold Steel’s Rondel Dagger is inspired by historical examples of the combative incarnation of this medieval dagger. Rather than a multi-purpose tool, this version was a specialized weapon. A side arm developed for in-fighting, to pierce mail or heavy clothing, and to slip through gaps in plate armor. The long, straight triple-edged and hollow ground blade is incredibly stiff and terminates in a needle sharp point. The blade is richly blued, then the edges are hand polished, giving the Rondel its handsome appearance. The handle of the Rondel Dagger is turned and intricately hand-carved from Rosewood, with brass pins added to give further decoration and more traction to the grip. The period-correct double dish guard and pommel are further embellished with file work and offer incredible hand protection. A historically accurate hand-stitched leather sheath with blued steel throat and chape allows the Rondel Dagger be tied to a belt or baldric and comfortably worn in a variety of positions. Perfect for Historical European Martial Arts practitioners who are studying the treatise or manuscripts on Rondel application, or a fine addition to the collection of a historical re-enactor or weapons enthusiast. Specifications: Blade Length: 11 1/2" Blade Thick: 5/8" Overall: 16 1/2" Handle: 5" Weight: 13.6 oz Black Leather Scabbard

Viking Great Axe

Viking Great Axe Cold Steel has been a long time believer in the ferocious cutting power of a well-designed Viking Axe. Until recently, they lacked the technical ability to make one to their satisfaction. However, with their new state-of-the-art forging facility, they can offer the customers something truly exceptional. The Viking Great Axe's formidably long, thin blade is fully polished and hand sharpened to a bone-splitting, shield shattering edge. It comes with a robust approx. 25.4 cm cutting surface that terminates in two sharp horns or points. Traditionally, the longer top point was used for stabbing, gouging, or parrying, while the slightly shorter bottom point was used to capture an opponent's shield or to hook and immobilize his neck, arms, or legs. To maximize leverage, strength, and dexterity of movement, the Viking Axe is equipped with a very strong, resilient haft. Made in Maine from the best hickory available, it enhances and amplifies the Viking Axe's lethal potential as a cutting, chopping and stabbing weapon. Details: Overall Length: approx. 132 cm Hawk Length: approx. 24.4 cm Handle Length: aprrox. 121.9 cm Blade Material: 1055 Carbon Handle Material: Hickory Weight: aprrox. 2099.5 g This is an item from the Cold Steel program in 2012.

Rubber Training Military Classic

Now you can practice with some of our most popular knife designs, in relative safety, with our new rubber training knives. We have rubber training versions of our Peace KeeperTM I, the R1 Military Classic, Recon Tanto, and the Black Bear Classic. Each has been carefully fashioned to look as realistic as possible so they can be effectively used in solo practice, training drills, disarm drills, and demonstrations and any other activity where you want a reasonably close approximation of realism but not the extreme danger and risk associated with an actual knife. The Santoprene rubber blades are soft enough to prevent the likelihood of most bodily injury. They do however, have a level of firmness that might cause injury to the face or the eyes, so it is recommended that appropriate eye protection or a fencing mask is utilized at all times when using a Cold Steel® rubber training knife. Specifications Overall length 11 1/2" Blade length 6 3/4" Weight 3.2 oz

Tiger Fork

Back in the early 1990's, Cold Steel's President Lynn C Thompson purchased a handmade Chinese Tiger Fork to add to his collection. He fitted it with an old rattan staff and has trained with it ever since. Lynn greatly enjoys reading tales of hunting exploits in historical accounts and had read several stories about Chinese hunters using these giant forked tools to capture and kill big cats. He also had the pleasure of talking to (and training with) Chinese Martial Artists about how this tool was modified as a weapon of war and its application as a formidable fighting implement. After 20 years, Lynn has finally brought his own version of the Fighting Tiger Fork to a modern audience. Our interpretation of this classic Martial Artists weapon features an elongated central spike to maximize its thrusting potential and inwardly curved outer forks to increase the success of trapping techniques. By deftly twisting and turning the Tiger Fork in his or her hands, a skilled Martial Artist can not only catch, parry, deflect and entangle an opponent's weapon, but also disarm them, throw them or even lock their joints before delivering a coup de grace. Specifications: Weight: 66 oz. (Overall) 35.6 oz. (Head) Width: 14 1/4" Head Height: 25" Handle: 64" Ash Wood Steel: 1055 Carbon Overall: 89"
