The Cold Steel Gold Lion Katana represents a Samurais every day carry sword for personal protection, and the defense of his Lord, his family and his home. Significantly lighter than some of our other heavier-duty Katanas, it is not only faster in-hand, but easier and more comfortable to carry when tucked into an Obi and worn all day. The Katanas Menuki bears the symbol of the Japanese Shisa (Lion Dog) a guardian or protector - a fitting motif for this beautiful lightweight sword. Measuring just under thirty inches, the Gold Lion Katanas blade is made from expertly hand honed and highly polished Damascus steel, with an Hamaguri grind, peaked Lori Mune spine and undulating clay-tempered Hamon. The black iron Tsuba, Fuchi and Kashira all have gleaming 24 carat gold leaf accents and the handle features white ray-skin and a black silk cord wrap.

    Love the blade

    4 months ago
    I’ve always wanted a decent katana and cold steel has always been a go to for me. I bought this to frankly play with and display so I really dig that Damascus blade. It’s great looking. The gold parts on my examples look like tarnished brass blobs. I don’t see a dog or a lion anywhere hehe. Just gold bubble blobs. The handle is just a bit loose, esp the pommel part. I’m ok with all that. Scabbard needed its fittings glued into place and the laquer scratches easy; no big deal to me. All in all,I love the specs on the sword itself: nice true Damascus steel polished up nicely, it’s daily light weight I suppose because it’s not overly built for straight up abuse-I prefer this because I won’t be hacking at anything. I’d like to learn some technique now! Yep. A solid B grade. Worth what I paid for it.

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    Katana

    This Katana is very nice. I have only knives to compare it to, but the coolness factor is best. I feels good in the hands. You need to add care and feeding of this blade; what oil, what to clean. care of the scabbard. If you want a Japanese sword then you need to go to Japan. However, if you would like an American Katana, this blade is perfect. Be very careful with this blade.
