What do you get when you cross the Hanwei Practical series with a Hanwei Raptor blade? The answer is – the new limited edition RENSHU series: Heavy duty 5160 monotempered spring steel blades with unique iron tsuba and Practical series tsuka handles..!
Now for those of you who don’t know what they are, and what makes these Katana such a good buy, here is the scoop. The blades are exactly the same as the Raptor series Katana – currently sold out, but priced at $299.99 plus shipping at SBG ($450 over at Hanwei). These blades were designed by the legendary James Williams of Bugei to be no nonsense cutters that you can use on harder, non traditional targets if you don’t have access to tatami mats, etc and have been very well received by the sword community in general.
You can read more about the Raptor Series swords over at CAS Iberia’s website here or watch the video demo below:
Now while these are sold out at the moment, the Renshu series are being offered as an alternative – a limited edition sword with the same blades, 2 uique tsuba designs, and the practical series tsuka to bring the price down..
As such, they are some $50 less than the Raptor here at SBG – making these tough 5160 monotempered spring steel blades better value than ever. And for the month of march only, you can select one of three high quality Japanese sword bags valued at $40 FREE!
Simply select which one you like using the drop down menu and we will include it with your Renshu Katana order for FREE (plus you will also get the basic, black sword bag that comes standard).
Here are the swords on offer, pretty cool designs I think.
Remember, once these are sold out – they are gone for good. So take advantage of this deal while you can!
