Hanwei by Paul Chen - Tiger Elite Katana - 29 inch Blade - Utilizing a hand forged and folded Performance Series katana blade and some of the finest fittings available, the Tiger is equally at home as a cutting blade or showpiece. The K120C powder steel blade is differentially tempered using the traditional claying method which produces a HRC60 edge and HRC40 back. This allows for superior edge holding and cutting ability while allowing the blade to absorb the shock of a blow. The hamon, or temper line, and hada - folding pattern - are very prominent. The koshirae, or fittings, are all made from blackened bronze and detailed in gold. The tsuba - guard - is made from blackened iron with a stalking tiger motfi. The same is of the finest ray skin while the tsuka-ito - handle wrap - and sageo - scabbard cord - are made from top-quality japanese cotton. The Tiger is supplied with a protective cloth bag and traditional maintenance kit.
