Practical Plus Elite Katana (実加刀)
The Paul Chen Practical Plus Elite katana has a forged high carbon
differentially tempered blade. It is an improved version of the original
practical plus katana with a shorter tsuka (handle) wrapped in cotton instead of
imitation leather. The Practical Plus Katana provides a very economical
cutting sword as dependable as the Practical Katana, 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 tightly-woven cotton wrap (Tsuka-Ito).
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.
