| Hanwei Paper Crane Wakizashi - Tamahagane (SH2328) |
Points: 60
|
Our Paper Crane Daisho (SH2294-Katana / SH2328-Wakizashi) is without doubt the greatest achievement in sword making artistry yet available from Hanwei. The blade is crafted from Hanwei's own Tamahagane steel (see below) while the fittings reflect the atmosphere of the Japanese theater. The Daisho's name stems from the origami (the art of paper folding) cranes that decorate the striking Tsuba and Fuchi/Kashira, all of which feature highly-prized "Nanako" or stippled backgrounds. The Menuki feature thespian masks, a symbol shared by the Japanese theater and its western counterpart. The Saya of the katana houses a Kozuka (small knife) while that of the Wakizashi carries a Kogai (hair pick) The Kozuka and Kogai are decorated with musical instruments of the theater. The Paper Crane theme is carried to the outstanding hand woven silk Sageo, the result of many hours of skilled work on a hand loom. Sold Out

| Hanwei Shinto Iaito (SH6004IGG) |
Points: 30

The Shinto Iaito Katana has a hand forged unsharpened stainless steel blade. The stainless steel blade not only provides a maintenance free blade but more importantly provides the correct weight and balance needed for the rigors of repetitive drawing and sword motion practice. The blade features a deep Bo-Hi to provide audible feedback when the sword is swung.
The Saya has been constructed from hard wood and finished in a deep black lacquer with a black Japanese cotton sageo.
A finely rendered dragon, detailed in gold, with true front and back detail, forms the black iron Tsuba. Sold Out
