Cold Steel Willow Leaf Sword – CS88BBB (R)

Unleash the warrior within with this legendary Chinese broadsword—an icon of battlefield prowess and civilian defense that’s endured from ancient dynasties through the 1940s. Masterfully crafted for cutting, slashing, and chopping, its broad, heavy blade features a distal taper that shifts the balance forward, delivering powerful strikes with pinpoint accuracy. Whether you’re reenacting historic battles, honing your martial arts skills, or displaying a stunning center-piece in your collection, you’ll feel the surge of centuries-old tradition in every swing.

The heart of this sword is a 26-5/8″ blade forged from 1055 high-carbon steel, creating a perfect harmony of strength, edge retention, and flex. At 5/16″ thick and weighing in at 40.8 ounces, it packs enough heft for formidable cuts while remaining agile enough for swift, fluid maneuvers. Its distinctive curve and taper aren’t just for show—they enhance your control, letting you channel momentum into each decisive strike.

Your hands stay locked in place around the 7″ handle, tightly wrapped in durable cord that absorbs shock and prevents slipping—even during extended practice sessions or intense demonstrations. Glinting brass guard and pommel pieces add a touch of old-world elegance, protecting your fingers and securing the blade’s balance point.

Every warrior deserves reliable protection, so we’ve included a rugged leather scabbard, stitched and riveted to withstand the rigors of transport and display. Slide your broadsword into its sheath and carry it with confidence—knowing you own a battle-ready blade that honors a proud martial heritage.

From its history-steeped design to its precision engineering, this classic Chinese broadsword delivers performance, beauty, and authenticity in one formidable package. Step into the footsteps of ancient soldiers and civilians alike, and experience the perfect fusion of art and combat in your hands.
