Cold Steel 88BDK Warrior Double Edge Katana Sword

This is the Cold Steel Warrior Double Edge Katana sword – model number 88BDK.
These warrior series of swords were born to be battle ready fighting instruments which are cheaper than their more expensive Imperial series of swords.

Overall, 39 inches long and comes with a lacquered scabbard and blue/violet cover bag.
