Nice review. I have had around 6 of their swords over the years. Still think I have 3 left. I was impressed with the quality of mine.

Nice, I really like the tsuba on that one, mellow and classy. I have a double hi model I bought from Hanbon Swords off ebay where the thinner hi travels up to the kissaki. Sadly, they forgot to DH a 1095 blade so it doesn't see much use.

Thanks for this review. I have been looking at this very huawei sword. I have always like Hanwei and had a PPK Elite that was just a beast of a cutter. But the axe handle on pretty much all the Hanwei katana under $700 or so have them. I just want a sword that has a nice amount of sori(without being to much) to get a DH koshizori would be awesome. And I want the sword to have a tsuka that follows the curve of the blade. The way they handle is much nicer than the straight tsuka do. I also like blades that have niku it doesn't have to be a lot but I like the convex geometry. I may pull the trigger and buy this one but I'm still looking around for the moment.

Hey, just wanted to let you know i'll finally post the review for the kanmuri-otoshi tomorrow (maybe tonight). Life just has been insane the last couple weeks and i just need to snag pictures.
