Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is legit, CAS Hanwei makes beautiful edged weapons. When i first bought the tanto i was afraid i would have been cheated out of my money, but what i bought is what i paid for. The blade itself is very sharp, i cut the box it came in in half with one swing. The tanto comes with a small black bag to wrap the sheathed blade when not in use. The handle is well made, and the blade has a nice feel when held. The only problem i wish it came with a polishing kit, because the blade was a little dirty when i got it. P.s. it also came with information on how the blade was made and instructions for care. I'm looking forward to buying from CAS Hanwei again.

Like the companion Katana and Wakizashi swords from Hanwei's Practical Plus line, this Tanto sword provides an economical, dependable cutting sword that uses traditional fittings and construction methods. The blade is hand-forged high-carbon steel and differentially hardened using a traditional claying method (HRC 60 edge, HRC 40 spine) with a medium (chu) kissaki. The temper line (hamon) is evident and prominent. It features genuine Same (Rayskin) on the Tsuka, with a wrap (Tsuka-Ito) specially developed for its gripping qualities. The fittings are decorated in a Japanese Dogwood motif with dragon menuki, and the handsome Tsuba is of an iron sunburst design with a brass habaki.
