   Absolutely beautiful blade. The cross guard and hilt could uses a bit more work, there are several blemishes and the brass isn’t centered but it still is a beautiful peice. My only complaint is that whatever they coated the blade with for shipping has gotten down into the scabbard and smears all over the balde when pulling from the scabbard.

   A beautiful sword. Vert beautiful. It came well packed. Well oiled. And was overall very good. Only complaint was the thumbring on mine was tarnished. But other than that. If you are looking for something unique this is it.

   First off, the blade is SHARP, not razor sharp, but still enough so to where it can cause some serious damage. While most of the blade is up to historical spec, it is a bit top heavy, not enough to be noticeable right out of the box but you will begin to notice it the longer you swing it. Another thing is that the thumb ring can dig in to your thumb, as it is not rounded, can, but it’s not a huge issue, I’m more often than not wearing gloves so it doesn’t effect me as much as it would someone who is not wearing some sort of padding.

   Beyond those minor inconveniences, it’s great. The blade isn’t very forgiving in terms of edge alignment but it has a sword wind sound as it moves through the air which can help you with strikes. Sturdy enough as far as swords from coldsteel go. It’s hilt one of the most comfortable I’ve ever held, craftsmanship is beautiful, and the finish on the blade is beautiful. It’s doubtlessly one of the best swords in my collection, and the price, they could easily charge twice what this thing is worth and I’d still consider buying it, if they improved the weight and thumb ring issues this sword would be absolutely perfect.

   These are well researched and reviewed by now. Always wanted one though Cold Steel is meh reputation compared to the early 2000s due to outsourcing. But we’ll focus on the sword itself and it’s pattern and build. Firstly, we’ll bring up one of the biggest “controversies” of this particular blade. Though not an actual Polish made blade accurate 100%, it’s within Era accuracy. The thumb ring is actually accurate. For the weapon. It’s not a cavalry or a foot soldier pattern weapon. It’s a nobleman’s dualing sabre. Not a basic soldier or calvary style weapon. Nobel weapons often had the thumb ring. Yes it may not fit you. Refit it with an armorer if gonna whine about it. It’s set as a neutral setup. Second. A tad end heavy. The fullers help with weight reduction in the blade, but there is an odd top heaviness to the sword. The blade is thin and quick, bit after several cross cuts it feels heavy somewhere. Honestly can’t tell where. Maybe because it’s evenly overweight somewhere somehow? It’s light, but yet heavy at the same time. Thirdly, this seller says its 1055……no. absolutely not. It’s not garbage 420 stainless, but it’s only AISI 1080 steel. Not necessarily bad steel for Era of the sword, but definitely not the seller’s AISI 1055 in their specs. Even Cold Steels site says just carbon steel. The tag that comes with the blade is AISI 1080. Again, not a horrible steel, but expect some damage if you use it for HEMA like they both say it could possibly be used for. You’ll spend allot of time at a Smith after each practice. Again least it’s not garbage replica sword 420 junk. This is at least real steel. Biggest reason for lack of 5th star. Every site states it as mixed results of steel type. So not just this seller or Cold Steel. Again honestly this type of steel mimics that Era of this store. Not super hard….try not to chop a tree or edge strike with it. 4th. Was a day late. Shame. Jk. Don’t care it got here and overall it’s a super cool true carbon steel blade sword and well made with true brazed brass parts. The scabbard is leather though meh with a plastic retention layer inside (original would be wood) probably to reduce wear to scabbard by sword. Scabbard is really good with roughly looking at grain steel parts on it though it looks chrome in seller’s pics, its mild steel roughly polished or plated brass. Next couple days I’ll stone finish sharpen and test it and will see how it compares to other reviews. I expect to have fun with it honestly. It’s not badly made at all surprisingly.

   I am a small time collector of edged weapons, so far I have close to two dozen swords, majority from Cold Steel, this particular blade is truly a piece of art! Deadly art! I received it with a heavy coating of cosmoline? It took a good 20-30 minutes of careful scrubbing, the blade was quite sharp and had no blemish, overall it is one of my top 5-6 swords, the scabbard is also top quality! I believe this would have made a formidable saber back in its time, better than the real ones in many aspects! For the price, it is truly a great value when you think of what you receive! I for one would rather save my pennies and purchase quality such as this piece than buying one of the many lower priced inferior quality available on the web! If possible go look, handle one of this maker’s blades, you will understand why I am partial to their products! PS: there are a few other brands that offer high quality and high value edged weapons, Del Tin, Cas Hanwei ( second favorite) etc…

   I really like this sword A few small imperfections but the price point to quality on this sword is great. Love the look and the feel… mostly. The thumb ring isn’t my favorite feature but it’s not a deal breaker or anything just get a glove if you’re doing any serious work with it. I use and wear it regularly had it for months now. Great buy

   Seeing how production options for a Polish saber at this moment is this or a wall hanger, you can see this is the best not custom made option at this time

   You won’t find a better saber in this price range! It’s sturdy, the red leather looks fantastic, and the thumb ring is quite ergonomic. Mine came very sharp from the factory and the matching scabbard is a looker too. The cons are it’s very heavy (2.5 to 3 pounds) and the grip is for a giant’s hands. I’ve got big hands, idk who on earth the grip is made for lol. But remember, in this price range these are economy swords. I got this to complete a ren fest costume so the aesthetics are exactly what I was looking for. Fast shipping too A++
