I like to buy the cheaper MAA versions, then remove the bluing with vinegar and then polish it myself with Brasso. It saves money and feels good to do. Its remarbably easy to do as well. Makes you wonder how the bluing process is cheaper than somebody spending 10 minutes on the metal bits with a polishing rag or wheel, but for the price, im certainly not complaining. **Q: Can you wield this sword with one hand?** A: I mean it's possible but it won't be as nimble as a lighter longsword. **Q: Rumors of loose guards.. Any truth?** A: The scales on the handle are loose. The guard is welded **Q: How is the pommel screw tightened? Im guessing its a specialized tool.** A: Not as specialized as you would think, I was able to fabricate one out of A large flat head screwdriver bit with a rotary tool, but I'm sure if you looked around enough you would find the proper bit for it maybe through craftsman , snap on ,husky etc. ## Frequently Bought Together - Cold Steel MAA Grosse Messer,Black - Cold Steel MAA Messer --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/5579613-cold-steel-maa-grosse-messer](https://www.desertcart.no/products/5579613-cold-steel-maa-grosse-messer) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-09-23*
