I have two Paul Chen Chinese swords
from those I'd guess the Chen Warlord is a usable piece of steel
with decent hardness
The two I own both have a similar heavy satin finish
not polished
Don't know the ColdSteel swords.
I've heard good & bad re both companies
* the grip/blade proportions are different between these two Warlord items
do you have a preference?
Check the weights.
The two Chen swords I have are properly distal tapered
so the warlord should be as well
Try a search over at Swordforum.com
Good luck.
