Forge: Paul Chen Hanwei Swords
Part Number: SH6001XPF




SH6001XPF -- Practical Plus XL Katana

The Practical Plus XL Katana provides a very economical cutting sword as dependable as the Practical XL Katana (SH6000XPF) , but using more traditional fittings and construction methods. The blade is forged and differentially hardened (HRC60 edge, HRC40 back) and the hamon is prominent. The Practical Plus XL features genuine Same (Rayskin) on the Tsuka, with a tightly-woven cotton wrap (Tsuka-Ito). The long tang is double-pegged for security. The fittings of the Practical Plus are decorated in a Japanese Dogwood motif with dragon menuki, and the handsome Tsuba is of an iron “sunburst” design with a brass habaki. The Practical Plus has been extended to include all of the Performance Series blades; with three cutting styles and three iaito lengths.  Maintenance kit available seperately (OH1003)

Heavy Competitive Cutting
Designed strictly for competitive cutting, the Paul Chen XL Katana blades incorporate the geometry, strength, weight and profile needed for successful cuts on substantial targets. Featuring differential heat treatment and a narrow edge angle, these wide blades will reward good technique with clean cuts and excellent durability.

Thanks Jason, you are the best all around dealer I've ever purchased from. The katana arrived this morning and I am super pleased you got it here in around 18 hours. The blade is beautiful and perfect in every way(as is the entire sword) and believe me I inspected the heck out of it! The transaction was absolutely perfect in every way. Customer service is definitely your forte. Thanks again Swords of Might!!!

I just opened it up tonight and went outside to do some cutting... Wow does this sword feel amazing. With minimal effort it glides like a knife through butter. It looks fantastic and the weight is amazing. Thank you Jason for all the great help.

MY first Hanwei
Tony petersen (Lawton, OK) 1/23/2010 3:15 PM
WOW :} i am absoulutley impressed with the quality of this blade. I'm litteraly thrilled that i get to write the first review, hahah :}. The sword is briliant and razor sharp right out the box, the sharpest sword ive ever touched. What it lacks in beauty it makes up for ten fold in functionability :}. RUGGED !!! The ray skin handle feels like it just conforms to your grip and then doesnt sip. This is coolest sword i have ever personally seen in real life. I only gave i a four star because there is always room to improve even you think it is perfect :} SO GOOD LUCK :}. the shipping was right on . I have no complaints , THANK YOU SOM, I am happy to have bought the XL PLUS and taken it out of stock . good fortune to you all
