Cold Steel – CS88WGS – Two Handed Great Sword – Fixed Blade Knife – 1060 HC Satin – Leather Wrapped – Black

The Cold Steel CS88WGS Two-Handed Great Sword is a commanding presence in any collection, delivering unmatched reach, raw power, and elegant craftsmanship. Inspired by the mighty swords of medieval Europe, this full-sized great sword is not just for display—it is fully functional, battle-ready, and capable of powerful cutting performance. With an overall length of over 55 inches and weighing nearly 7 pounds, it is built for strength, balance, and precision. Despite its massive size, the CS88WGS is remarkably well-balanced and surprisingly agile in skilled hands. Designed for large-statured or physically strong users, this sword benefits from a long, leather-wrapped wooden handle that offers a two-handed grip for optimal control and leverage. The guard features prominent side rings and parrying hooks, allowing for advanced defensive techniques and controlled strikes in close-quarters combat. Crafted from 1060 high-carbon steel, the blade delivers both resilience and edge retention. The satin finish adds a refined look to its otherwise brutish design. The dagger-style blade profile gives it a thrusting advantage while retaining cutting strength. Its thick, robust spine ensures durability during heavy-duty use, while the heavy steel pommel provides critical counterweight for fluid movement and swing balance. Whether you’re a historical European martial arts (HEMA) practitioner, collector of medieval weaponry, or simply a fan of oversized swords, the Cold Steel CS88WGS is a serious blade that delivers on both functionality and visual intimidation.
