The elegant Chinese sword Chinese Leaf Gim by Cold Steel is inspired by traditional civilian arms. It features a hardened 1060 carbon steel blade, a rosewood handle, and a stylish wooden scabbard. Perfectly balanced for thrusting and cutting, its striking look is completed by a decorated stainless steel guard and pommel.
The Chinese Leaf Gim is traditionally regarded as a civilian sword—elegant, representative, yet sufficiently robust for self-defense both in urban environments and open spaces. Thanks to its geometry, it is primarily intended for thrusting, but it is nearly as capable in cuts, delivering surprisingly forceful strikes.
Cold Steel’s modern take focuses on reliability and authentic looks. The hardened 1060 carbon steel blade provides excellent strength and flexibility, while the rosewood handle fits comfortably in the hand. The decorated stainless steel guard and pommel not only protect but also emphasize the sword’s historical character. The visually matched rosewood wooden scabbard gives the whole set a premium impression.
