The
“Practical Plus” Katana is member of the
Hanwei Samurai sword line, providing a very economical
cutting sword as dependable as the Practical Katana
PC
1070-GT, but using more traditional fittings
and construction methods.
The
blade is forged and differentially tempered (HRC60
edge, HRC40 back) and the hamon is prominent.
The
Practical Plus features genuine Same (Rayskin) on
the Tsuka, with a wrap (Tsuka-Ito) specially developed
for its gripping qualities. 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.
A
beautiful companion piece to the Katana is the PC
2118-GT Practical Wakizashi.
