| Hanwei Practical XL Katana - 28,5 inch (SH6000XPF) |
Points: 16
|
The blade is forged and differentially tempered, using the same process as the more expensive blades and producing an HRC60 edge and HRC40 back. The temper line is authentic and prominent. Cost savings are effected by using fittings which, while making no claims to authenticity, are very strongly built to withstand the rigors of cutting exercises in the dojo.

|
The Practical Plus Elite Katana provides a very economical cutting sword as dependable as the Practical Elite Katana (SH6000KPC), but using more traditional fittings and construction methods.

The fittings of the Practical Plus Elite are decorated in a Japanese Dogwood motif with dragon menuki, and the handsome Tsuba is of an iron ''sunburst'' design with a brass habaki.

| Hanwei Lance Head (XH2037) |

| Hanwei Viking Thrusting Spear (XH2038) |
Points: 3
|
The Viking Thrusting Spear was more commonly used than swords, being much less expensive to produce. The wings or lugs, of Frankish origin, both limited the penetration of the weapon and provided an effective parrying guard.

| Hanwei Viking Throwing Spear (XH2039) |
Points: 2
|
The Nordic warrior frequently carried several light Throwing Spears into combat. This style displays the narrow, sharply pointed head designed to pierce mail. Several spears might be carried in the shield hand in a charge. These were thrown as the distance closed, leaving the warrior free to use his sword or axe in hand-to-hand fighting.

| Hanwei Viking Short-Bladed Spear (XH2040) |
Points: 2
|
The Viking Short Bladed Spear is typical of those of Celtic origin, imported into Scandinavia. The short blade, inherently stiffer and more resistant to bending or breaking, was capable of piercing any body armour of the period.

| Hanwei Dark Sentinel (SH2066) |
Points: 9
|
Combining the slashing power of the Samurai Katana with the agility and thrusting ability of fine European dueling swords, the Dark Sentinel (SH2066) is a handsome sword with a bite. Light and quick enough for single-hand fencing but with the ability to turn on awesome two-handed power, the Dark Sentinel will guard the castle gates against all would-be usurpers - without draining the Royal treasury! The forged high-carbon steel blade is complemented by a studded leather-wrapped grip with a stylized tsuba-like guard. A leather-covered scabbard with steel fittings completes the package.

| Hanwei QuanDong Folder (KH2026) |
Points: 5
|
Silver inlaid buffalo horn is the handle material of choice for Hanwei's Quandong Folder. The form of the folder originated many generations ago in the Quandong (or Canton)Province, but the button lock, from designer Paul Chen, is strictly a modern twist. The Quandong represents influences of nature in the design with its egg plant shaped handle and bamboo leaf shaped blade. A truly interesting piece for the collector and knife enthusiast. Sold Out

Superior balance is achieved by deep fullering of the blade, making the knife very agile. A hard-case leather-covered scabbard and belt frog provide for secure carry, while a solid oak stand is provided for collector display. Sold Out
