Shashka - Cossack Sabre

Shashka – Caucasian Cossack Sabre

The long edge of the steppe warrior

Born among the peoples of the Caucasus Mountains in the 12th and 13th centuries , the shashka was much more than a weapon: it was the soul of the Cossack rider. Agile, indomitable, and feared, these warriors of the Russian Empire mastered the art of the sabre from the saddle, and the shashka became their most loyal ally.

This Hanwei replica recaptures the spirit of those legendary blades. Forged from 60CrMnA spring steel , its blade offers great flexibility and durability , ideal for quick parries and lightning attacks. The engraving of the Russian Imperial coat of arms pays homage to its historical lineage, while the oak handle ensures a firm, authentic grip.

An elegant and lethal saber, perfect for collectors or lovers of Slavic martial arts.
