Cold Steel 30" Bokken Training Sword - Black Polypropylene Blade & Handle$26.80
Availability: In Stock
The Cold Steel Gladius Trainer Sword is a 31-inch polypropylene practice blade designed for martial artists, historical weapons enthusiasts, and combatives practitioners who want to develop technique without the risk of a live steel weapon. Built from durable black polypropylene, this trainer gives you the weight, balance, and handling characteristics of Cold Steel's Gladius design in a safe, impact-resistant form—perfect for solo drills, partner work, or curriculum training.
Trainers are essential tools for anyone serious about sword form and footwork. Unlike live blades, a polypropylene trainer won't chip, dull, or break expensive steel when you're learning. The Gladius Trainer's 31-inch overall length makes it suitable for a range of martial disciplines that employ shorter blades or machete-length weapons, from Filipino martial arts to military combatives to historical European swordplay adaptation.
Cold Steel has built a reputation for functional, field-proven gear. Their trainer line bridges the gap between training safety and realistic practice, so you're building genuine muscle memory and blade awareness rather than practicing with something that doesn't move or feel like a real weapon. The black polypropylene construction is visible, durable, and won't rust or require maintenance like steel would.

Yes. The polypropylene construction makes it safe for controlled partner work and training scenarios where live steel would be inappropriate or dangerous. Always follow proper safety protocols and wear appropriate protective gear when training with any blade, trainer or otherwise.
Absolutely. The 31-inch length and polypropylene construction make it ideal for developing footwork, timing, and blade awareness through repetitive drills and solo practice.
Polypropylene trainers are lighter and lower-impact than steel, making them better for high-volume practice without fatigue. Steel trainers are more durable long-term but heavier and harder on joints and equipment. The polypropylene Gladius Trainer is a practical choice for serious training volume without the maintenance and weight penalties of steel.
