Bamboo Mat Katana by Paul Chen-Hanwei

The Bamboo Mat Katana features a chu-kissaki blade made of Hanwei's own high-alloy HWS-2S steel, which combines impressive performance with a striking o-choji hamon.

This steel is made in the new Hanwei factory, with high-tech equipment, which produces a blade of very pure advanced metallurgy with excellent edge-holding ability and resistance.

The hilt of this samurai sword features a bamboo-themed black iron tsuba, textured in a bamboo mat design with a fused bamboo edge and prominent gold-tipped bamboo leaves. Fuchi and kashira follow the same theme, and gold menuki depict a pair of sparrows.

Saya is finished in high gloss lacquer with horn fittings.
