Cold Steel CS80SSXL Battle Star Black 1055 Carbon Steel Blade Throwing Star

The Cold Steel CS80SSXL Battle Star is a throwing star built from 1055 carbon steel with a black finish. This is a traditional multi-pointed throwing weapon designed for target practice and sport throwing. The 1055 carbon steel construction delivers the weight and edge retention serious throwers expect, while the black coating resists corrosion and reduces glint. Whether you're setting up a backyard throwing range or adding to a collection of traditional throwing implements, the Battle Star offers the balance and flight characteristics that make consistent, accurate throws possible.

Cold Steel has engineered the Battle Star with the geometry and heft needed for reliable stick-and-spin performance. The pointed design and flat profile are classic for a reason—they work. Carbon steel holds an edge and accepts resharpening if needed, making this a tool that can see real use rather than sit on a shelf. The black finish is practical: it looks clean, protects the steel, and won't distract you downrange.

This is not a toy or novelty item. Throwing stars demand respect, proper technique, and a safe throwing environment. If you're already into the sport or exploring it seriously, the Battle Star rewards practice with predictable flight and solid impact. It's the kind of gear that works best when you know what you're doing and have the space to do it safely.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is this throwing star made from?

The Battle Star is forged from 1055 carbon steel with a black finish. Carbon steel is the traditional choice for throwing weapons because it's tough, holds an edge, and has the weight needed for consistent flight and impact.

Is this a quality throwing star for sport throwing?

Yes. Cold Steel's Battle Star is engineered and manufactured to serious standards. It's designed for actual throwing practice and target work, not as a novelty. Proper technique and a safe throwing range are essential.

Can the edge be sharpened if it becomes dull?

Carbon steel can be resharpened and maintained with basic tools and technique. This is one advantage of carbon steel over stainless—it responds well to honing and doesn't require special equipment.
