Practical Wakizashi (実脇差)
The Practical Wakizashi offers quality at a
great price. Blades are forged and differentially tempered to
producing an HRC60 edge and HRC40 back. The temper line is
authentic and prominent. Cost savings are effected by using
fittings which, while making no claims to authenticity, are very
strongly built to withstand the rigors of cutting exercises. It
is suitable for tameshigiri (test cutting) or kodachi kata.
The CAS Hanwei practical wakizashi fittings match the katana and
make a great daisho set.
