The Story of the Sword
Frost is a unique sword and it's very difficult to categorize it…
Although it has some elements of a Chokutō, the blade geometry is completely different and it lacks a habaki (blade collar).
Frost has no hand guard. When sheathed, it looks like one solid piece.
The blade is only 0.195" at its thickest point which makes it very quick and nimble in the hands.
It also has a black G10 spacer where a hand guard would be. The spacer is flush to the handle and acts as transitional piece from where the handle meets the scabbard. The purpose of the black G10 spacer is to help find the sword if it was ever dropped in the snow.
This sword was designed to aesthetically match the snowy region from which it was commissioned.
