Paul Chen: The Man And His Swords
Paul Chen swords are world renowned for their affordability and functionality. Paul Chen's swords have been produced by his sword forge Hanwei since 1993 in Dalian, China and distributed in the United States by CAS Hanwei.

Samurai Swords

Paul Chen became known worldwide for creating the Practical Katana. This sword was amazing for three reasons. The blade was forged using traditional methods. The sword was designed with martial arts in mind. Lastly, the practical katana was affordable!

Antiques and custom Japanese samurai swords often cost thousands of dollars. Someone paying thirty thousand dollars for a good katana from Japan would not be unheard of. The practical katana was among the first to be offered for just a couple hundred dollars. The samurai sword line produced by Chen's company Hanwei has been expanded on immensely. In addition to the practical line of samurai swords, he now has many swords using authentic construction techniques and materials.
