Hunting sword

Hunting sword

The hunting sword, also known as the "hanger", was an extremely popular weapon in Europe and North and South America in the 16th and 17th centuries. With a mostly short blade that was rarely longer than 65 cm, this sword was characterised by its handiness and effectiveness. It was the ideal companion, whether on foot, on horseback or on a narrow ship deck. In addition to its popularity in the fashion of the time, the hunting sword was indispensable in many situations due to its practical use.

Cold Steel's® version of this historic hunting sword combines stylish design with outstanding functionality. The satin-finished blade has multiple fullers and a back edge, which gives it both aesthetic charm and exceptional sharpness. The handle is made from high-quality, hand-carved Malaysian salwood and decorated with nickel silver pins. The sheath made of robust black leather perfectly matches the elegant design of the sword, while the nickel silver fittings with decorative embossing provide additional accents.
