Michael 'Tinker' Pearce has a number of Hanwei swords from 5160 steel designed to combine the authenticity, functionality and performance. To meet the different demands of the Western martial artists meet, there are of each of the seven swords, all offering excellent handling, a sharp and a blunt battle-ready version. Careful heat treatment of (Tinker preferred) 5160 steel by marquenching results in an excellent combination of strength and flexibility at a Rockwell hardness of 50-52 HRC. A higher edge strength is at the sharp blades allows, while the blunt models prevents burrs and the safety-related flexibility of the tip is guaranteed.
