Cold Steel Colichemarde Sword 32.36 IN Blade

The Colichemarde emerged on the sword scene in the late 1600's during the decline of the Rapier and the rise of the small sword. Its long suit was its uniquely shaped blade that was extra wide at the forte then stepped down or narrowed for the rest of its length before ending in a wicked point. The advantage of this configuration was it allowed the sword to be used to parry or oppose even the heaviest weapons without breaking, yet remain light and supple enough to take full advantage of its lightning quick point. Blade length: 32.36 in Overall length: 40.00 in Blade material: 1055 Handle material: Steel Comes complete with a sheath Weight: 25.60 oz Blade finish: Satin
