Hanwei Hand and a Half Sword - Tinker Pearce Blunt Trainer (SH2401) |
Points: 16
|
Bastard Sword Blunt Trainer designed by Michael `Tinker` Pearce and reproduced by Hanwei to his specifications.
The Blunt Trainer features nearly identical handling of its sharp companion, but with thick edges (2mm) and a rounded tip for safe sparring practice.
Tinker Pearce has developed these matching longswords to satisfy the need of every Western Martial Arts practitioner and sword enthusiast, to have a matching set of sharp and blunt swords for cutting and safe training practice. The swords meet Tinker`s exacting quality requirements and are built in much the same way as his custom pieces. Each blade is forged from 5160 Spring Steel, Marquenched to the desired hardness of 50-53 Hrc while the tang is drawn back to the low 30s Hrc. Teh very end of the tang is threaded to fit an allen nut recessed into the pommel which allows for dimantling of the hilt assembly for inspection or to exchange blades if needed.
What others are saying about the Tinker Pearce Longswords:
"I had the opportunity to handle the prototype Tinker Pearce Line Longswords by CAS/Hanwei, and they are beautiful, well-balanced, quick-handling swords at an excellent price. The sharp and blunt versions handle almost identically in cuts, thrusts, and quick posta (guard) transitions. These promise to be the mid-priced training weapon of choice for longsword studies."

Our Cutlass design is taken from an original made to the specifications of the Dutch East India Company (Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie, VOC), dating from about 1780. The lightly antiqued high carbon steel blade has a distal taper, with fullers on both sides along the spine, and handles well. It is fully tempered and while provided un-edged, for re-enactment purposes, it is capable of taking and holding a useful edge.

Yang Saber - Blunt Practical (SH2381) |
Points: 14
|
These Sabers, built for the Yang-style Tai Chi practitioner, are solidly built and tastefully decorated. The high-carbon steel blades are fully tempered, with excellent balance and flexibility. The brass fittings complement the genuine rosewood scabbard and handle beautifully.
The Standard Saber has a traditional, lively action to reveal the energy passing through it when expressed. It is comfortably light and can be utilized with ease by the new or average practitioner.
The Practical Saber has the weight and balance of a live sword. The blade, with its refined tip and fuller spine makes for a great trainer. The experienced practitioner, who can appreciate a more accurate historical feel, will like this sword. Sold Out

Templar Dagger (SH2364) |
Points: 7
|
The Templar Dagger is a solid sidepiece. Its solid brass fittings and black leather scabbard will complement period garb beautifully. Iberia Swords are crafted in much the same way as swords were made centuries ago, except that the blades are now forged from high-carbon spring steel, a resource unavailable off-the-shelf to the smiths of the old. The blade finish is far from being polished, again more closely replicating what the medieval swordsmith was able to achieve. Except as noted, grips are leather-covered hardwood. Fittings are either steel or solid brass. Except, where shown all of these swords have scabbards of leather-covered fiberglass with steel lockets and chapes and removable suspension rings. These swords will appeal to the re-enactor who wants a sword with the same appearance as the originals. Sold Out

''Lowlander'' Two-Handed Great Sword (Antiqued) (SH2065N) |
Points: 14
|
Wielded with untamed ferocity on many a Gaelic battlefield, the massive Lowlander sword vividly illustrates the might of the Scots of old. Known as �Slaughter-Swords� in the 16th century, these were the swords of choice for Scottish mercenaries of the period, and at close to six feet long the Lowlander faithfully replicates a surviving museum piece. Though by far the largest sword ever offered by CAS Hanwei, the Lowlander is beautifully proportioned and balanced. The typically Scottish quatrefoils in the ring guards attest to the heritage of this imposing piece. The sword is available in both polished and antiqued finishes, the finish of the SH2065N closely replicating that of the original museum piece. The grips of the Lowlander are leather-covered with an overlaid leather binding. A wall mount is provided to allow the transplanted Gael to display his sword with pride. Sold Out
