Hanwei Forge is proud to introduce the newest edition to the practical series, the Practical-Pro Katana. Due to high demand, we have produced a katana of the highest quality, with an extended handle and a longer & thicker blade. 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 (hamon) 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. Features simulated Same handle and black leather wrapping. Comes complete with a black lacquered wood scabbard and a violet cover bag.
