Butterfly Swords (aka 8-Cutting Swords) are believed to have been developed by Shaolin monks as a concealable defensive weapon, used to disable rather than kill, which was prohibited by the monk's code of conduct. The use of butterfly swords has since been honed to a fine art by martial artists, particularly the Wing Chun & Hung Gar styles of Southern China, where precision and two-sword coordination are emphasized. Our Butterfly Swords Set (HA2067) by CAS/Hanwei is a high-quality set featuring high-carbon tempered steel blades with traditional dragon scroll patterning, leather wrapped grips and steel guards decorated in a dragon motif. This same motif is repeated on the fittings of the double scabbard. A wall plaque is included for display of the Butterfly swords. KEY FEATURES: * High-carbon tempered steel blades * Leather wrapped grips and steel guards * Wall plaque and double scabbard included MEASUREMENTS: BLADE LENGTH: 11 1/2" HANDLE LENGTH: 5" OVERALL LENGTH: 16 1/2" WEIGHT: 1lb THICKNESS: .18 |
