Cold Steel Heavy Duty Sword Cane

A flat-black exterior finish on its heat-treated aluminum shaft and a black, molded-nylon handle give Cold Steel’s Heavy Duty Sword Cane a discreet appearance, but the 24"-long, 3/4"-wide, bayonet-style, spear-point, stainless-steel blade hidden within is claimed to be one of the toughest ever made.

The cane’s 2 mm-thick shaft measures 1" in diameter and 37.5" long and is capped with a stout rubber cap for traction on slick or uneven surfaces.

The blade is crafted of 3Cr13 stainless steel with a proprietary heat-treatment and tempering process, and releases with a simple tug on the handle to break the O-ring-secured friction lock.

Overall weight is 26.9 ozs. MSRP is $133. For more information, visit coldsteel.com.
