CAS Hanwei Butterfly Swords


Butterfly Swords (or Eight-Cutting Swords) are believed to have been
developed by Shaolin monks as a concealable defensive weapon, used to
disable rather than kill, which was prohibited by the monk's code of
conduct. The use of butterfly swords has since been honed to a fine art by
martial artists, particularly the Wing Chun & Hung Gar styles of Southern
China, where precision and two-sword coordination are emphasized. The CAS
Hanwei Butterfly Swords Sets feature high-carbon tempered steel blades with
traditional dragon engraving. The SH2067 set features leather wrapped grips
and steel guards, decorated in a dragon motif. This same motif is repeated
on the fittings of the double scabbard. This set includes a wall plaque for
display of the swords.
