| Hanwei Beile Dao (SH2386) |
Points: 55
|
The original Beile (Lord in Manchu), also known as the "Banner Lords" and "Iron-Capped Princes" were the sons of Nurgaci, founder of the Qing Dynasty. After his death the Beile Hong Taiji was selected as Khan.
Our Beile Dao commemorates this Prince. Its beautifully detailed Iron furniture complements the patterning of the Damascus blade and the rayskin-covered scabbard adds to the rugged richness of the sword. Truly a collector piece and creating a demand in its homeland, this sword will only be available in limited quantities. Sold Out

| Hanwei Bone Handled Swept Hilt Rapier (SH1092) |
Points: 15
|
Our Renaissance-style Swept Hilt Rapiers trace their origins to early 17th century Europe, where swordplay with the Rapier was considered an essential part of a gentleman's education and was often used in resolving gentlemanly disagreements. Blades generally originated in one of the blade making centers such as Toledo or Solingen, but many differences in styling and hilt materials resulted from the local manufacture of hilts all over Europe. The Main Gauche, or left hand dagger, was often used with the rapier, providing an added dimension in both offense and defense, and the "Schools of Fence" which proliferated in Europe during this period taught the use of the two weapons in combination. The Main Gauche would often match the Rapier in styling, while incorporating features which maximized the effectiveness of the piece. Sold Out

| Hanwei Butterfly Swords (SH2067) |
Points: 12
|
Butterfly Swords (aka 8-Cutting Swords) are believed to have been developed by Shaolin monks as a concealable defensive weapon, used to disable rather than kill, which was prohibited by the monk`s code of conduct. The use of butterfly swords has since been honed to a fine art by martial artists, particularly the Wing Chun & Hung Gar styles of Southern China, where precision and two-sword coordination are emphasized. Our Butterfly Swords Set (SH2067) by CAS/Hanwei is a high-quality set featuring high-carbon tempered steel sharp blades with traditional dragon scroll patterning, leather wrapped grips and steel guards decorated in a dragon motif. This same motif is repeated on the fittings of the double scabbard. A wall plaque is included for display of the swords. Sold Out

| Hanwei Celtic Sword (SH2370) |
Points: 11
|
Our Celtic Sword has an anthropomorphic hilt and leaf-shaped blade. Solid brass hardware, a macassar ebony grip and leather scabbard make this piece ideal for the Celtic persona. 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

| Hanwei Coppergate Helmet (AH2153N) |
Points: 40

The Coppergate Helmet was recovered during excavations in the ancient walled city of York in 1982. Dating from the 8th century, the Anglo-Saxon is of great archeological importance. The inscription on the crest is an invocation for protection from the helmet's owner Oshere to the Holy Trinity. This reconstruction clearly illustrates the skill of the 8th century craftsmen.

| Hanwei Dragon Armour Helmet (AH2314) |
Points: 30
|
The original of the kabuto (helmet) of the Dragon Armour (AH2193) is interesting in as much as the bowl of the helmet came from the Momoyama period. The suji bachi style of bowl, with overlapped and riveted plates was typical of the finest helmet makers (katchu-shi) of this period, borne out by the signature of the Saotome smith 'Ienao' on the back plate. The menpo (mask) is a typical ressei men of the type made in Nara. Mounted on a solid wood display stand, this helmet will be an outstanding addition to any collection and will complement any décor beautifully.
