'''Wintersteel''' is a metal on [[Cradle]].

Wintersteel can form in the ground when sword [[madra]] and [[Vital Aura|earth aura]] interact in a certain way; a Forger technique by the [[Min Shuei|Winter Sage]] caused this to happen in [[Sky's Edge]], making it one of the few places within [[Akura Family|Akura]] territory where wintersteel can be mined.{{book ref|c8|8}}

When made into a blade, it feels like a combination of ice and sword madra to spiritual senses.{{book ref|c7|9}}
