Description

The Cold Steel CS88GMSM MAA (Man at Arms) Grosse Messer is a formidable weapon that draws inspiration from the traditional Germanic two-handed swords wielded by Renaissance-era warriors. True to its historical roots, this modern rendition is a powerhouse of craftsmanship and visual appeal, combining raw functionality with period-accurate design elements. Whether for historical reenactments, collection, or martial arts training, the MAA Grosse Messer makes a bold and authentic statement. Forged from durable 1055 carbon steel, the massive 32-inch blade features a deep blued gunmetal finish that not only enhances corrosion resistance but also evokes the aesthetic of antique battlefield steel. The blade is standard-edged, ideal for cutting practice and stage combat scenarios. It’s perfectly complemented by a blued steel guard that offers added hand protection and period-style flair. The handle is constructed from richly colored rosewood, polished to a smooth finish for both comfort and grip security. Measuring in at a substantial overall length of 42.25 inches, this sword has the reach, weight, and presence to serve as a reliable training tool or centerpiece display. It comes complete with a premium leather belt sheath, also fitted with blued steel accents, for secure carry and authentic presentation.
