The practical basket-hilt broadsword is built for the re-enactor. The basket is identical to the edged version (Sh2002), but the blade is unsharpened, with 1/16" safety edges and rounded tips, complying with the combat rules of many re-enactment societies. The blade is crafted at hanwei in 1065 high-carbon steel, hardened to 50HRC, which reduces edge-notching to acceptable levels while providing resilience and protection against brittleness. The scabbard is finished in matte black, ready for owner customization if desired. Overall: 38 1/8" blade length: 31 3/4" handle length: 6 1/2" weight: 3.5lb point of balance: 5" point of harmonics: 20" width at guard: 1.67" width at tip: 73" thickness at guard: 23" thickness at tip: 15" blade steel: 1566
