The Practical Taiji (Tai Chi) series from CAS Hanwei has been developed in response to many requests for a quality Taiji sword for everyday practice. Our SH2008 series features three blade lengths to suit the individual requirements of the Taiji practitioner. Featuring a steel guard and pommel the swords are correctly balanced and the the un-edged blades are crafted in fully tempered high-carbon steel. The flattened-diamond blade section produces a blade that is moderately stiff, while still allowing for some flexibility. A tough padded Nylon Carrying Case (OH2280) for ease of transportation and a matching Tassel (OH2078) are available.

The name of Hanwei, and that of its founder Paul Chen, engender an image of fine functional swords and historical weaponry. Based in Dalian, China, Hanwei manages to combine traditional craftsmanship with modern tooling and metallurgy, in a way that enables it to supply a world-wide market while meeting or exceeding the quality of custom-made products.
