## Questions & Answers

**Q: someone mentioned that you may need a frog to hang this, do you really need a frog or will any large amphibian do?**
A: Given the weight of the sword, you will need at least two LARGE frogs, properly tanned and seasoned, to avoid the aforementioned stretching and resulting tearing. Other large amphibians would suffice, here again providing they are of sufficient size and thickness of skin. And not endangered...by all the gods of Nehwon and yonder, please do not use endangered amphibian for your sword hanger/baldric...none of us will ever hear the end of that. Use velociraptor or something common like that.

**Q: Is this a full tang, tempered steel sword?**
A: Yes it is both full tang and tempered steel. As an aside it is a fairly hard steel but a decent amount of flex for the length and size of the blade.

**Q: what is the total length of this sword in inches? And what is the width of the blade from top to tip in inches? Thanks**
A: Total length point to button on pommel: 43.5 inBlade point to guard: 33.5 inWidth edge to edge at guard: 1.77 in, with .25 in thickness as cross-section.Width edge to edge just before last point taper: .88 in, with .15 thickness as cross-section.

**Q: Is it a mainly two hand weapon or can it be used with one hand?**
A: It depends in your strength, for regular persons mostly is two hands weapon. But I’m sure there are some who can handle with one hand.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful and agile longsword
*by F***T on July 27, 2020*

Years ago, I was researching swords to buy as props for a film project and I came across this beauty and its matching dagger. I instantly fell in love with its simplicity, elegance, and frankly its utilitarian deadliness. But I could not justify buying a REAL sword, at the time. I kept thinking about this sword for over 10 years.In that time, I have been training with a couple of heavy training swords, one plastic (also from Cold Steel), and the other actual forged steel. I say this simply to give context to the review about weight and balance of this blade. I am not a sword expert, but I do have years of experience training with practice weapons designed for professional use.I finally pulled the trigger and ordered this sword and its matching dagger. Both arrived today, and I put them through their paces. I am overjoyed with them both. The finish and quality on the weapon is fantastic. It is a simple design, but executed without flaws. No rattling, nicks, cracks, or any other nonsense. This is a fine quality, real weapon made to a high standard.I have seen others express the grip is a bit shorter or narrower than they expected, and I do not find this is the case for me. While I do not have enormous hands, they are also not small. I can barely palm a regulation basketball. This grip feels like the natural size for my hands both in length and girth (yes, I realize the phrasing there is comical, shut it). While the leather on the grip is thin, it appears to be of high enough quality that I am not concerned about it wearing through quickly, and it provides a slide-free grip.The sword comes sharp. Actually, too sharp for some classic longsword techniques to be effective. You could not grip this blade without cutting yourself, even at its base. As any sword enthusiast knows, the first thing one must do when a sword arrives in the mail is to murder the box it came in. I fulfilled this obligation, and can tell you it sheared the box clean in half in a single strike. The tip is also deadly sharp for thrusting, as it should be.This is a light blade balanced for agility. The balance point is just a little over 2 inches from the hilt, making it easy to maneuver the blade quickly. Compared to my practice swords, this thing is light as a feather. It literally whistles through the air going through standard drills. While it is certainly capable of delivering a powerful strike, power does not seem to be the intent behind this design. This one is all about speed and precision.I am actually going to be stepping up my sword training and learning all classic techniques, and this sword will be my primary weapon when doing so. So I will update this review if I find any issues while working through that process. But as of now, I am glad I obsessed over this sword for years and it's even better in person than I imagined.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic sword
*by A***N on December 1, 2012*

I bought this sword about 8 months ago and i just have to say if you are thinking about getting this sword, get it!!! the price-tag on this baby was 270$ when i bought it and i notice that it is going down, So get it while it's cheap...er. Here are some pros and cons:Pros:1. it's fairly light at about 4 pounds for what i would call a 2 handed weapon (i'm 5'5" so it is a 2 handed sword for someone of my size)2. even though i use it as a 2 handed sword, with a little bulking up, this sword can easily be handled with one hand3. the blade is lively4. comes very sharp right out of the box5. the handle on this blade is sturdy and gives a good grip6. it looks like something Aragorn would carry around in middle earth7. very good scabbard8. it is a legit battle ready weapon, and a bad ass wall hangercons:1. being rather short it is hard for me to carry it on my hip with a sword frog because the sword would be only a few inches from dragging on the ground2. again being as short as I carrying it on the back is rather difficult because my arms are too short to draw the blade from the scabbard, thus requiring me to un-sling the scabbard from myself if i intended to use it.All around a very good weapon and worth the money.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing sword must buy !!! More like a two handed sword then a hand in a half
*by L***S on December 29, 2020*

Very happy with the sword , I would consider it a two handed sword though which I like better , It’s so light you can still use it with one hand It’s perfect, I gave it five stars even though it came with minor damage because I was so impressed with it the only damage was on the guard itself the very tip of the guard it look like it was smashed with a hammer or chewed on or something but only on one side and very small you can look at my photos to see it. I am so happy with it though I’m not going to even return it because of the small damage it is straight as an arrow sharp good handle tight well-made better than a normal hand and a half it’s the perfect size sword I am 6 foot 3 Are usually collect katanas and I really like this sort it is definitely one of my favorites I was amazed how late it was you can really swing this thing fast well balanced also.
