Shamshir, Persian Persuasive CST-88STS

Shamshir, Persuasive Persian

Originally from Persia, the shamshir was a very popular weapon that spread throughout the Ottoman Empire and reached the Philippines and India. Today, this historical sword remains a highly valuable piece for both its exquisite beauty and its magnificent design.

Cold Steel's version of this historic sabre is a faithful reproduction of the original, featuring a carefully hardened and tightly curved 1055 carbon steel blade, providing a narrow cross section, superior cutting edge, and sharp point. Additionally, it features a bowl that has a cross-shaped brass guard and a handle portion of imitation buffalo horn, which ends in a pronounced, slightly bent molded knob to provide the hand with both hard cutting blows and support.

The beautiful hand-made sheath is made of strong black leather, reinforced with a brass band and mouthpiece, ensuring a sturdy and long-lasting protection to keep the blade sharp. Additionally, two mounting rings have been added for easy carrying.

This Shamshir from Cold Steel is a true masterpiece and is perfect for collectors of antique weapons and history lovers. But it is not just a decorative object, this magnificent weapon can also be used for practical purposes and is ideal for those who like fencing.
