Review: Best Cold Steel Sword to date! - This talwar is supreb in quality and durablity. The brass guard, hilt, shealth and fittings set this sword apart from the rest of the Cold Steel offerings, and the 1095 steel blade is a gigantic step up compared to the usual 1055 featured in Cold Steel's swords. It is sharp and able to shred through paper and cardboard with ease. Furthermore, the swordsmanship style that this blade demands is draw cuts, because the round pommel will not allow you to use your wrist. Thus, you must do research on Indian Swordsmanship to master the Talwar. It looks stunning and gorgeous and the grip is comfortable with bare hands. This is the best value for the money for Cold Steel swords, because they normally sell under $200. I would recommend this sword based on the ease of use in unsheathing, draw cutting, and sheathing it. Review: More historical accurate version than previous - I had purchased the previous version like 10 years ago. That one had the British cavalry sabre attached to an Indian style hilt. A fine piece, but not exactly* historically accurate. This newer version has a talwar style blade attached to a talwar style handle. It is advertised that the blade has been designed with inputs from Sikh weapons expert Sardar Nidar Singh. It shows. The balance is closer to the hilt. The blade is sharp enough to cut paper. The whole build quality is excellent. Some notes: *Historically, there are many examples where European blades were attached to Indian hilts - but these were more so for straight blades. The disc pommel on the Indian hilt will restrict movement of the wrist. It is by design. If one was to deliver a cut with the talwar, the fist has to be held inline with the wrist, like when one is punching. A cut is delivered at its intended location by the movement of the deliverer's elbow, shoulder, actually the whole body. A talwar is nor designed to be handled like a rapier or a pen. ## Features - The Cold Steel Talwar is the culmination of years of experimentation and extensive research. With its hand-forged and beautifully balanced blade, the Talwar features a solid brass hilt that will accommodate even a large gloved hand. - Steel: 1090 High Carbon Steel is an excellent choice for larger fixed blades. It takes and holds a good edge while remaining tough enough to withstand even our brutal stress tests. - Leather Scabbard with Brass Fittings - Sport type: Outdoors ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00U1IB0KK | | Best Sellers Rank | #687,243 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #1,334 in Martial Arts Swords | | Blade Length | 73 Centimeters | | Blade Material Type | High Carbon Steel | | Brand Name | Cold Steel | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (55) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00705442013563 | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Handle Material | Brass | | Included Components | Leather Scabbard with Brass Fittings | | Item Dimensions L x W | 41.3"L x 7.5"W | | Item Type Name | Sword | | Item Weight | 1 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | GSM LLC | | Product Style | Classic | | UPC | 705442013563 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Knives & Blades: We stand behind our products 100%.

The blade not perfectly smooth, I found 4 slightly sunken places when I was wiping it. Not easy to see bur can be easy to feel when sliding finger on it. These sunken places are focus on 1/3 of the tip on the blade. Protruding part of siperlik (Quillion) was bent and it cloud not fit ağızlık (locket) but fortunately the siperlik only narrow about 2 mm or less so I can adjust it by myself. I guess this is caused by a collision in transit, not a flaw in the product itself. ## Frequently Bought Together - Cold Steel Talwar Sword , Black - Cold Steel English Back Sword, 32", Black - Cold Steel Cinquedea 14.5" Fixed Blade Knife --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/42162410-cold-steel-talwar-sword-black](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/42162410-cold-steel-talwar-sword-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
