Hanwei Henry V Sword – Functional Replica

The Hanwei Henry V Sword is a faithful reproduction of the sword that adorns the tomb of King Henry V of England, a revered warrior king. This single-handed cut-and-thrust weapon features a sturdy yet relatively short blade, elegantly curved quillons, and a distinctive wheel pommel.

In keeping with traditional sword-making techniques, Paul Chen's swords are meticulously crafted using high-carbon spring steel, mirroring the craftsmanship of centuries past. The blade finish is intentionally less polished, accurately reflecting the historical accuracy of medieval swordsmithing. The grips are wrapped in leather over hardwood, providing a comfortable and secure hold. 

The fittings are made of either steel or solid brass, adding to the authenticity of the design. These swords are ideal for re-enactors seeking weapons that closely resemble the appearance of their historical counterparts.
