Cold Steel Dragonfly Wakizashi Sword Update After 10 Years

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

I have owned the Cold Steel Dragonfly Wakizashi (s71.co/3eH4LPc) for about 10 years. Recently, a viewer asked how it is holding up? Is it still sharp? Does it still thirst for the blood of innocents? In this video, I go beast mode on a water jug. Then I discuss where this sword fits in, price-wise, in today’s very competitive sword market. There is a list of less expensive sword options below the video. Enjoy! :]

[@kennywheelus6857]

Glad it's still holding up I own a reverse blad katana, sakabatuo,like Ruroni kenshin movie an the animie

[@nicksweeney5176]

You're an excellent "backyard cutter". I always enjoy and appreciate your cutting demonstrations. Thank you.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Thank you for your support!

[@starkparker16]

Some sweet slicing

[@MrHrKaidoOjamaaVKJV]

Awesome cutting skill right there, with an excellent quaity Wakazashi sword. The Cold Steel hybrid Machete Swords Tactical Wakazashi and Katana are very effective for the budget minded person.

[@mmgross144]

Definitely one of the best cutters that I’ve seen you wield, which you do so with the ease of an expert.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Thanks, bro! They definitely did a good job making this sword.

[@batbrains187]

🔥 crazy its 10 years old🔥

[@preparedsurvivalist2245]

99 percent of you would have screwed up that last cut on the gallon jug. He made it look easy.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Thanks, bro!

[@vensheaalara]

Very clean cuts. Excellent vid. Very nice blade.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Thanks, bro!

[@ronbumgarner5479]

I've been collecting blades for along time, Muela, Puma, Joker and cold steel. The price is higher but I still want the best blades I can get $300 is ok by me. Thanks for sharing. The old man in the mountains said that ( PS keep all your fingers )

[@phillipmargrave]

Would you consider placing new ito wrap and a new kashira on the wakizashi? The white grip tape might make an acceptable samé. Since you’ve had the sword for such a long time it would be neat to see you do a restoration of the original issues (loose ito, etc).

[@powerplay4real174]

The Wakizashi is my favorite Japanese blade of the sword type, the Katana is king with most folks but I prefer the shorter Wakizashi over the Katana. So I'm going to need to check out those links 🎯⚔️🎯

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Excellent, this is still an epic blade today :]

[@MrMZaccone]

Have you thought about the chisa katana?

[@phillipmargrave]

I definitely like the wakizashi a lot as well but my favorite differs considering the context. If on the battle field I’d rather have a yari and tantō combo. If I were in a town or at court I’d definitely want a wakizashi. 😅but since I’m not a real samurai I don’t have to seriously worry about it and can just like them all

[@6firefightin]

Keep the videos coming. I love your channel!

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Excellent, I appreciate you, brother!

HELL yeah! Love this channel! Mostly the knife reviews, but I like his humor, coverage and the sound of his voice quality. Enjoyable videos!

The cut at 1:10 was a very cool shot

I'd love to see an update on your Calvary Saber, I believe it was also from Cold Steel, I really like that saber

[@dan-dan-da-treeman]

Always the best review. Always.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Thanks, Brother Dan!

[@jkmatthie]

Just curious, did you replace the handle wrap out of necessity (because it loosened and was a frustrating mess) or out of no concern whatsoever for the original design, because you wanted more tactical ease of use? I've heard a lot of stories about the wrap coming off and not being worth the trouble to re-wrap, as designed. It would be nice to learn whether or not it's actually more durable than some give it credit for, and this was purely a tactical choice. Excellent video, few out there have really given some presence and thought about this shorter handle waki from CS, and I'm glad to see such attention to detail and active demonstation.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

The wrap did come loose right away, yes.

[@fiercebone825]

Always great content here!

Badass! Thanks for that I needed that!

Thst one is nice I've seen some onkult of Athena,prices are friendly depending on which one you like,swords just about for everyone's preference.

[@bladetasticknives5712]

Awesome video brother 👍🏻👍🏻👊🏼

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Thanks, my friend!

[@Janet_Airlines802]

I’m thinking about getting something like this instead of the longer Katana. Shorter would be better for home defense.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

For sure, I like the Wakizashis and Chisa Katanas.

[@Codevil.]

Nice, love the review, because I am hardcore about cold steel , but have bought no swords because of my income

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

I will definitely test out the budget blades, those are most popular vids :]

[@AvianOptical]

Need to bring the ole crkt hisshou out for spin, these short swords in a modern context are really practical for cqc self defense in non firearm applicable situations. Zombies for sure 😉

[@tonyelbows8045]

that is a very Dotanuki style looking blade....

[@andrewlepeilbet772]

Brother of the blade I always look forward to your reviews and I also push your name and KZbin channel around to my friends in life Community I don't mean push I suggest it thanks for being a hard-working American Hi-5

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Thank you, brother!

[@batbrains187]

🔥 do you sharpen them and how would you go about sharpening??🔥

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

I hone it with ceramic rods, but haven't hardcore sharpened it.

[@joepalermo3836]

I’ve been reviewing your videos on this particular style of short sword , what would be the best bargain sword of this type

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

That would be the Musha Tactical Wakizashi: s71.co/3wXTjns Pretty good for the price!

[@danp6820]

Your the best

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Thanks, bro!

[@tonyelbows8045]

ey can I axe you to do an update on the Hanwei Tactical Katana? Pound for pound, I believe, is the best budget sword in the world. The 5160 steel, the full tang, and the modern grip is bomb-kil-diggety.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

I could, but I wonder why they no longer sell them on Amazon? People won't like it if they're not widely available anymore.

[@John..18]

Wouldn't want to be a burglar in your house, haha ha, 🤣🔪🤣 Another great video,, thanks... 👍 How about some fruit ??,, Pineapple, melon etc,, 🍍🍉🌽.??

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Pineapple is good, has a density nearer the human body, I've chopped those before.

[@raphlvlogs271]

would you also recommend also using a Wakizashi as a machete type tool?

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

A wakizashi could definitely be used as a machete, but because they cost a lot more most people wouldn't.

[@slingshotwarrrior8105]

Awesome sword bro! Have you seen my recent video? Crossbow Saturday

[@brenchomsky3515]

What is the WIDTH of your WAKIZASHI close to the handle ?

[@johnovanic9560]

What happened to the handle? Did it wear out or did you just cover the handle with the grip tape?

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

The green wrap came loose almost right away, so I replaced it.

[@nateianovici5739]

@@WeAllJuggleKniveshave you ever taken out the meguki? Is the tang suitable for making micarta or wood handles?

[@crispysocksss]

How would you sharpen that? It's the only thing holding me back

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

I would use a ceramic rod from my Spyderco Sharpmaker to touch it up by hand. But, most people who get super into sword sharpening eventually start using traditional Japanese water stones.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

I do have a few dive knives, mostly very pointed daggers.

That handle looks rather long for wakizashi. What's up there?

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

They have 2 versions, both the same blade, but short handle or long.

[@MrMZaccone]

@@WeAllJuggleKnives Looks a lot like their chisa katana.

Awesome sword it's got a tip from hell

The blade weapon of the warriors of the past. Today the blade weapon of the modern warrior is something much shorter as we are carrying in no permissive environments.

Yes

[@阿久津誠-b2g]

日本では「とんぼ」の名前がつくのは剣じゃなくて「とんぼ切り」っていう槍なんだよ

[@ogarzabello]

That shuld be called a wakizashi "type" sword. For a sword to be called a katana or a wakizashi, it has to be made only in Japan, by a master sword maker useing traditional methods, and a particular ferroceus material called tamahagane only found in Japan, transformed into several, layered steels with different carbon concentrations, and the sword has to be blessed in a temple. And a good katana will cost more than $300 dolars, it wil cost $5,500 dollars or much more if you want something really special.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

I'm not too clear on Japanese law. So, this sword might well not be considered a Wakizashi according to their laws or regulations. Doesn't really matter though, unless selling it in Japan.
