The A.P.O.C. Katana is an all-business tactical Katana designed for maximum usability, practicality and lethality. Designed by renowned swordsmith Angus Trim, the clean lines of this katana emphasize decisive cutting coupled with robust construction; the spine of the blade is thick and strong and in profile the blade has an elongated, chisel-like geometry designed to give it a long cutting plane - this is a blade built to cut, hack, stab and slice with authority. The blade is constructed from 9260 high carbon steel and is finished with a Black Oxide coating to minimize maintenance and maximize stealth.

Bought this recently. I got it because it look like it handles more like a gladius than the gladius. The gladius looks like it handles more like a longsword. I plan on making some experimental grips for mine. I also want to polish the blade into a nice mirror finish. I'm still coming to terms with how springy spring steel actually is.

Don't cut with your left foot forward when cutting from the right.

@SIKUSESI Год назад

strong logic 👍

@franknbeanz147 5 лет назад

I have the Gladius model purchased somewhere, else the edges on these are horrible I've been trying to put a good edge on mine but have small whetstones thinking of getting rid of it

@YeshuahisKingofKings 4 года назад

may have been a bad quench :( . Katana version honed quickly with Arkansas soft stone for me, and retained it after initial test of thick brush cutting (1/2" softwood with ease)

@franknbeanz147 4 года назад

Its quality steel but the factory edge is not a edge

@franknbeanz147 4 года назад

It's more akin to a axe or machete

@DeltaJulietPapa 4 года назад

Scales are G-10, not micarta. Also, only the neck of the sheath is kydex. The rest is a fiberglass reenforced plastic.

Nice but I really like my Brutus better! Nice video!

Very Blade-esque.

@Gamerdude535 3 года назад

This and that tactical “Gladius” are pretty sweet! Wonder if Angus Trim might consider remaking the zombie slayer Longsword/Bastard Sword for the APOC line. Or at least iirc he made that for Valiant Armory. It’s in ways so much like this sword in design concept.

@CrispyChicken38 3 года назад

I'd love to see him make a longsword. Just got the broadsword and am quite satisfied for the price point after a bit of work.

@Gamerdude535 2 года назад

@@CrispyChicken38 Seems my comment has aged well!! Apoc has a “Survival Longsword” now!! So much like the Valiant Armory Zombie Slayer but somewhat less expensive! Been eyeing it ever since I found out about it from a recent post from Kult of Athena’s facebook page!

@seanmiz6539 5 лет назад

Not too bad for the price. I’d be curious how it handles compared to my beater condor gladius

@kultofathena6217 5 лет назад

Condor gladius has a great handle. This one is a bit thicker than that model.

@9unslin9er 4 года назад

It handles horribly. There is way too much mass at the grip. The ancients designed weapons the way they did for a reason. These "modern" blades are wallhangers. In a real fight, you'd be killed.

Edge alignment on cutting for fuck sake. It's not a baseball bat

@ShepherdsSheepdog 2 года назад

And maybe sprinkle it with a few drops of water. At LEAST 5 minutes before the cutting.😝

@hohanrodanrodan9624 5 лет назад

Hey guys, on the website it shows a single side sharpened on the blade.

I bought the BRZM Sleeveless Mail Shirt - AB2781. I am a 44 Regular? I bought the 48 inch chest. It does not fit? I practice Bladed, Kalari, Silat, Ninpo Tai Jutsu, and Ancient Chinese Blade Craft Martial Arts. I feel like I am trapped in a Flooding Car! Can any one help?

@zgman67 4 года назад

there is a lot of effort not to say simple things like edge hardness and overall quality. looks like selling is everything. sad for a site like kult of athena

@YeshuahisKingofKings 4 года назад

Sword buyers guide has a great article about these swords. In swords, you get what you can pay. For the money, quality designer, steel, & forge set these above others in the price range.

@zgman67 4 года назад

@@YeshuahisKingofKings thanks, I am familiar with sbg. what I would like to see in others is also how sword can take abuse and how rezilient it is. not to destroy it, but to give us some info that is important for buyers, not just for sellers. 9260 steel is supposed to be pretty tough, but is it??? all we know is it is "expertly tempered" and then it is left to us to believe it and spend money

@featherknife8611 2 года назад

I cringe when you do those cuts. You swing a sword like it's a Louisville slugger.....like a future amputee. Try placing the other foot forward, and keep your leg out of the sword arc during the cut. Elementary stuff.
