Cold Steel – CS88THG – Two Handed Gim Sword – Fixed Blade Knife – 1055 HC Satin – Cord Wrapped – Black

Crafted for the discerning collector and martial arts enthusiast, the Cold Steel CS88THG Two Handed Gim Sword is a commanding blade inspired by traditional Chinese design. This elegant yet formidable weapon blends classical aesthetics with modern metallurgy, delivering a piece that is as functional as it is visually striking. The Gim sword—sometimes referred to as the “gentleman of weapons” in Chinese swordsmanship—is known for its balance, precision, and historical significance. Cold Steel has elevated this concept with a two-handed variant that showcases superior craftsmanship, powerful cutting capability, and detailed finishing. The elongated 35-inch blade is made from 1055 high carbon steel, known for its resilience, toughness, and edge retention. With a satin finish, it glints with understated authority. The ornate brass guard and pommel add a rich historical tone, while the burgundy cord-wrapped wood handle offers both beauty and a sure grip. The handle length provides excellent leverage and control for two-handed use, making this piece not only a stunning display sword but also a viable option for traditional martial training and cutting demonstrations. The included brown wood scabbard complements the sword with a smooth, polished finish and robust construction. Whether displayed proudly in your collection or used for practical forms and cuts, the CS88THG is a testament to Cold Steel’s commitment to quality and historical homage.
