The Practical Taiji (Tai Chi) series from CAS Hanwei has been developed in response to many requests for a quality Taiji sword for everyday practice. Our SH2008 series features three blade lengths to suit the individual requirements of the Taiji practitioner. Featuring a steel guard and pommel the swords are correctly balanced and the the un-edged blades are crafted in fully tempered high-carbon steel. The flattened-diamond blade section produces a blade that is moderately stiff, while still allowing for some flexibility. A tough padded Nylon Carrying Case (OH2057) for ease of transportation and a matching Tassel (OH2078) are available.
