Hanwei Tinker Pearce Norman Sword - Sharp (SH2426) |
Points: 10
|
The Tinker Norman sword pair, with their distinctive cruciform guard and brazil-nut pommel, are similar in weight and static balance and offer virtually identical handling characteristics. Both are harmonically balanced, optimizing cutting ability in the case of this sharp version.

Hanwei Tinker Pearce Early Viking Sword - Sharp (SH2408) |
Points: 10
|
Early Medieval Sword designed by Michael `Tinker` Pearce and reproduced by Hanwei to his specifications.
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. The 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.

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."
