Lion Dog Wakizashi W

The Lion Dog Wakizashi W from CAS Hanwei is a finely appointed Japanese sword by Paul Chen, produced with close attention to metallurgy and traditional visual detail. Its O-Kissaki blade is made from Hanwei’s HWS-1S high-alloy steel and displays an O-choji hamon, giving the piece strong collectible appeal and a refined display presence. HWS-1S steel is developed through advanced metallurgy and careful control of carbon distribution across the blade section, producing a resilient structure with a hard, abrasion-resistant edge. The fittings include a black iron Lion-dog themed tsuba, matching fuchi and kashira, and golden peony menuki set into the handle. The saya combines a gloss-lacquered ribbed section at the koiguchi and kurikata with a spatter-lacquered finish across the remaining length. Completed with a hand-woven sageo, this wakizashi is a distinctive CAS Hanwei collectible for enthusiasts of Japanese sword craftsmanship. Sageo colours may vary.
