OVERVIEW
The Thompson Saber is not a historical or period-specific sword, rather it is a newly developed, thoroughly modern fighting saber. Designed by Cold Steel President Lynn C Thompson to be a fighter's sword for the modern martial artist. "I believe that the edge is superior to the point when facing multiple opponents." Therefore, while it does thrust well, the Thompson Saber is a cutting tool first and foremost, on foot or horseback.
Hair shaving sharp for the first six inches from the point, then gradually less sharp down through the rest of the blade, leaving enough material to block, parry, and even bludgeon an opponent's blade. It's deeply blued to aid in rust resistance, but also to make the blade harder to see in the fast-paced cut and thrust of combat. It has a modified 1904 Saber guard, offering amazing hand protection and a sizeable ray skin wrapped handle that will accommodate even big modern fencer''s gloves.
"I designed this sword to be able to make deep cuts even with a flick of the wrist, and it makes monstrous cuts when "drawn" through the target. If you study bladed arts and appreciate the combative potential of the sword, I''m sure you''ll love this saber!"
The Thompson Saber comes complete with a heavy duty thick leather and steel scabbard with a leather belt frog for ease of carry. 1055 Carbon steel blade.

Beautiful dark and beasty saber
This saber meets and exceeds all of my expectations for a saber especially at this price. The blade arrived surprisingly sharp and in cut tests ran like a hot knife through butter with bottles and jugs of all sizes. It takes just a little bit to get used to but has decent distal taper and feels great in the hand both defensively and offensively. The scabbard is high quality, has a nice belt frog and fits the saber well. The only thing else I can say about this dark and devastating blade is that you better get one while you can.
