Paul Chen Hanwei SHINTO ELITE Japanese Katana

Traditional Hand Forged Katana Featuring Antiqued Dragon Motif

Paul Chen Hanwei SHINTO ELITE Japanese Katana

With the Shinto Elite Katana, CAS/Hanwei brings a high quality, traditionally constructed blade with wonderful premium level fittings to the newly enhanced Elite Line. The Shinto Elite features a blade made from high-carbon steel, which is hand forged with differential tempering via traditional claying techniques. The advantages of the newly enhanced blade geometry of the Performance Series are seen here, providing increased cutting prowess, strength and stability.

This Japanese sword is mounted in black and is constructed with premium fittings for the traditionalists, including a tsuka formed of an authentic ray skin same' and premium black Japanese cotton ito. The black iron tsuba is artistically rendered, and features a dragon highlighted in gold with great detail on both the front and back. The saya is deeply lacquered in black with a black cotton sageo.

This katana features beautifully antiqued fittings creating an aesthetically appealing yet dangerously effective cutting tool. A cloth bag and traditional maintenance kit complete the offering.
