	Hanwei Paul Chen AH2015 Oda Nobunaga Japanese Suit of Armour Code: CASIBERIAAH2015 Price: $847.00 Quantity in Basket: none
Oda Nobunaga 1534-1582 played a key role in shaping the course of history in fuedal Japan. His policy of unifying a country controlled by many fueding daimyo (warlords) was furthered in a series of victories characterized by brilliant tactics and the first organized use of firearms. His unification policy became a reality under his successor, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, shortly before the end of the 16th century. Our very affordable battle armor, constructed by the craftsmen of Hanwei, is the Yukinoshita Do style, having largely solid vertical plates around the torso and incorporating all of the elements of a suit of armor of the period. The crest of Oda Nobunaga is mounted on the helment. The armor is wearable (within a reasonable size range!) and is supplied in the traditional lacquered armor box, which, along with a wooden frame, provides the support for the stunning display.

The inscripiton on the crest is an invocation for protection from the helmet's owner Oshere to the Holy Trinity. This reconstruction clearly illustrates the skill of the 8th century craftsmen.
	Hanwei/PaulChen AH2155 SUTTONHOO HELMET Code: CASIBERIAAH2155-p Price: $563.00 Quantity in Basket: none
Discovered in 1938 at the Sutton Hoo excavation site in England, the Sutton Hoo Helmet (AH2155) was recovered from the site of an Anglo-Saxon ship burial. Dating from the early 7th century, the helmet is believed to have belonged to King Raedwald, who died in 624 C.E. and is a great archiological importance. This reconstruction illustrates admirably the skill and decorative talent of the armours of the period.
	Hanwei/Paul Chen AH2190N Gjermundbu Helmet Code: CASIBERIAAH2190N Price: $156.00 Quantity in Basket: none
The Gjermundbu Helm is based on a classic Viking helm found in a Norwegian burial mound. Found in nine fragments, the helm has been re-constructed and is now housed in the Museum of National Antiquities in Oslo. It dates from around 970 A.D. and is considered to be the finest helm found from that era. The “spectacles” (officially “occularia”), provided excellent facial and nasal protection, while chain mail provided flexible protection to the back and sides of the neck. As with the original, our Gjermundbu helm is provided with a leather chin strap.
	Hanwei/PaulChen AH2191N SPANGENHELM Code: CASIBERIAAH2191N-p Price: $192.00 Quantity in Basket: none
The Spangenhelm (AH2191N)is based on an 11th century piece. This style of conical helemt construction, whereby overlapping metal straps or "spangen" were riveted to dished metal plates to form a skull cap, is known to date back to the 6th century and was used as late as the 15th century. Our Spangenhelm, with its solid "nasal" and reinforced "eyebrows" is of an 11th-13th century style. Many can be seen on the famous Bayeaux Tapestry, which records scenes from the 1066 CE Battle of Hastings. As with the originals, our Spangenhelm is provided with a leather chin strap.
	Hanwei/Paul Chen AH2192N Barbuta Helmet Code: CASIBERIAAH2192N-p Price: $192.00 Quantity in Basket: none
The Barbuta replicates a 15th century helm that was popular throughout Europe. Bearing a strong resemblance to the helmets of the ancient Corinthians, the Barbuta (or Barbute) was found not only with the facial cutout shape shown in our model but with a T-shaped cutout (no nasal) and with an open-faced rectangular cutout. Designed as a helmet for regular infantry, it fitted closely to the skull and nape of the neck and the sides almost touched the shoulders, affording very good protection.
	Hanwei/Paul Chen AH2193 Dragon Armour Code: CASIBERIAAH2193-p Price: $2,335.00 Quantity in Basket: none
Hanwei’s Dragon Armour, named for the helmet crest (mon), is made for the connoisseur of Japanese armours. It faithfully replicates a “Byotoji Do Gusoku” from the Edo period which, like many fine armours, incorporates an earlier helmet bowl from the Momoyama period. European influence on Samurai armour is discernible in the slight median ridge to the front section of the byotoji okegawa do (breastplate) which, by this period, was designed to deflect musket balls. The plates of the do, with waved edges, are fastened with elaborate shakudo rivets in the form of flowers with gilt centers. This feature illustrates the Japanese preference for a more flexible style of armour than the typical European one-piece breastplate construction. The carrying chest/display seat (hitsu) is black lacquered with the Dragon mon emblazoned in silver on the front panel. Overall, the antiqued patina of the gusoku gives a period appearance and provides a rich addition to any Japanese décor.
	Hanwei/PaulChen AH2314 DRAGON ARMOUR HELMET Code: CASIBERIAAH2314-p Price: $605.00 Quantity in Basket: none
The original of the kabuto (helmet) of the Dragon Armour is interesting inasmuch as the bowl of the helmet came from the Momoyama period. The suji bachi style of bowl, with overlapped and riveted plates was typical of the finest helmet makers (katchu-shi) of this period, borne out by the signature of the Saotome smith “Ienao” on the back plate. The menpo (mask) is a typical ressei men of the type made in Nara. Mounted on a solid wood display stand, this helmet will be an outstanding addition to any collection and will complement any décor beautifully.
	Hanwei/Paul Chen FH2345 1841 6-Pdr Cannon Code: CASIBERIAFH2345-p Price: $422.00 Quantity in Basket: none
The Model 1841 6-Pounder gun was made in large numbers for the Mexican War and was in general service at the outbreak of the American Civil War. As a result they were widely used in large numbers by both the Federal and Confederate armies. Weighing approximately 900 lbs., these guns were fairly easily transported and maneuvered. They were superseded fairly early in the war, lacking the power of heavier guns and the range of rifled pieces, but nevertheless they have an important place in the history of the nation’s conflict.
	Hanwei/Paul Chen KH2069 Outrider Bowie Code: CASIBERIAKH2069 Price: $119.00 Quantity in Basket: none
The Outrider is a big Bowie, combining an 11in forged 440C blade with brushed stainless fittings and a checkered rosewood grip for a beautifully proportioned cutting tool. Superior balance is achieved by deep fullering of the blade, making the knife very agile. A hard-case leather-covered scabbard and belt frog provide for secure carry, while a solid oak stand is provided for collector display.
	Hanwei/Paul Chen KH2092 Tactical Tanto Code: CASIBERIAKH2092 Price: $77.00 Quantity in Basket: none
The Tactical Tanto combines the best attributes of a traditional tanto with modern features that make this an eminently practical tool. The genuine rayskin grip and distal-tapered, edge-tempered blade (60HRC edge) with its distinctive temper line are strictly tanto, but everything else is pure Paul Chen. The 7in high-carbon blade is blued and under the rayskin a heavy tang provides strength and enough weight for effective use of the pommel. A spring latch provides positive retention in the powder-coated steel sheath, which is nylon-lined for quiet operation. Two positions are provided for attaching the ViseClip mounting, allowing ultra-secure handle-up or handle-down carry. Two positions are provided for attaching the ViseClip mounting, allowing ultra-secure handle-up or handle-down carry.
	Hanwei/Paul Chen KH2093 Sidekick Boot Knife Code: CASIBERIAKH2093 Price: $167.00 Quantity in Basket: none

A padded storage case is included.
	Hanwei/Paul Chen KH2186 California Bowie Code: CASIBERIAKH2186 Price: $124.00 Quantity in Basket: none
When the forty-niners went overland to the Gold Rush of California, most took along a Bowie knife to use on the trail, and for social purposes, if the need should arise. Some had a fancy side etch like this one: Californian Bowie Knife. Although the original of this knife was made by the I. Lingard company in Sheffield (and not in California) we have included it in our States Bowies series because of its use of the marketability of California in the post-Civil War period. Such knives are difficult to find today.
	Hanwei/Paul Chen KH2187 Chevalier Bowie Code: CASIBERIAKH2187 Price: $124.00 Quantity in Basket: none
John Chevalier had a shop on Broadway, in New York, where he made Bowie knives and surgical instruments from 1835 to 1871. His quality was first rate; one of his Bowies was presented to Edwin Forest, a larger-than-life theatrical star of the period and apparently a collector of Bowies.. Another knife was presented to Forest by James Jim Bowie, himself, probably when Forest and Bowie were both in Natchez. Surviving Chevalier Bowies are much sought-after by collectors.
	Hanwei/Paul Chen KH2188 New Orleans Bowie Code: CASIBERIAKH2188 Price: $124.00 Quantity in Basket: none
This knife replicates an existing original, made in the French Quarter of New Orleans by a cutler named Pradel. The knife is relatively compact and could well have been commissioned by a client with easy concealment in mind. The checkered buffalo horn grip and clean lines give this piece an outstanding appearance.
	Hanwei/Paul Chen KH2189 Hunter Bowie Code: CASIBERIAKH2189 Price: $124.00 Quantity in Basket: none
Alfred Hunter was a cutler from Newark, New Jersey. He was in the Bowie knife business in the 1830’s and 1840’s. His bowies were top quality then, and very rare now. The notch on the blade is called a Spanish notch, a feature found in several variations on some early Bowies.
	Hanwei/Paul Chen KH2210 Bell Bowie Code: CASIBERIAKH2210 Price: $124.00 Quantity in Basket: none
This is a replication of a Bowie knife made by Samuel Bell. Bell was a cutler and silversmith first in Knoxville, Tennessee, then in San Antonio, Texas. He became mayor of Knoxville during his career and is also known for a pair of silver spurs that he made for Sam Houston. The original knife still exists in a private collection – it is large, even by frontier standards, but is beautifully proportioned and a delight to handle.
	Hanwei/Paul Chen KH2211 Horse-Gator Bowie Code: CASIBERIAKH2211 Price: $124.00 Quantity in Basket: none
The original of this knife, with its interesting hilt design, was made in the mid-1850’s by the Woodhead and Hartley company. The design on the pommel is a half-horse, half-alligator, said to have been derived from a line in an American folk song I’m half-horse, half-alligator and I can whup anybody in the house. Similar pommels were used by a number of Sheffield manufacturers on their Bowies.
	Hanwei/Paul Chen KH2215 Vicksburg Bowie Code: CASIBERIAKH2215 Price: $124.00 Quantity in Basket: none
The original of this knife, whose blade carries another version of the Spanish notch, was made in about 1836 by the W. & S. Butcher company, whose growth was based almost entirely on sales of its products into the American market. The blade style is indicative of the early production date of this Bowie and the hilt style became known as a dogbone grip for obvious reasons.
	Hanwei/Paul Chen KH2216 Death to Traitors Bowie Code: CASIBERIAKH2216 Price: $124.00 Quantity in Basket: none
The original of this Bowie, with a blade etch designed to appeal to the Union loyalists during the American Civil War, was made by W. & H. Whitehead in about 1860. Many Northern troops carried Death to Traitors knives, and they were referred to by Southerners as Damn Yankee Knives. The hilt style of this Bowie became very popular and remained in common use when the Bowie was shortened and relegated to the role of a hunting knife.

Our war fan is based on an original from the Edo period and is inscribed with Chinese military philosophy from Sun Tzu’s Art of War.

In 1876 the Samurai were banned from the carrying of swords by the Hito-rei edict of 1876.

Innocuous walking canes now concealed the revered blades but the katana, the "Soul of the Samurai", lived on. Created by today's Oriental master smiths, the Bamboo Stick Katana combines an artfully carved "Bamboo" scabbard and grip with a razor-sharp blade hand forged and tempered in the style of the originals. Not to be confused with low quality imitations.

It has been said that in simplicity lies great beauty, an axiom stunningly validated by the Golden Oriole Katana (1018-GT) and Wakizashi (1019-GT).

Worn as a straight dagger, the weapon becomes a highly effective Main Gauche at the touch of a button, when the spring-loaded side pieces of the split blade fly open to become blade trappers. At the same time the offensive capability provided by the point is retained. Surprisingly, many examples of this ingenious system have survived and may be seen in European museums.

The Scramasax (SH1075, KH2184B, KH2184S), carried by the Saxons and the Vikings between the 4th and 10th centuries, came in a wide range of sizes and was used both as a tool and a weapon. Carried horizontally, at the back of the belt, the scramasax provided the spearman with both a close-quarters weapon and a tool and utensil in camp. Our SH1075 Scramasax, with its foot-long blade, would provide both slashing and thrusting power in battle while handling heavy-duty chores around the home and camp. The KH2184B and KH2184S models are patterned on a surviving blade just 3 ½” long, and while these would have been used primarily as eating utensils they could, if needed, be called upon to inflict a disabling wound. These two pieces are authentically hilted in bone and stag horn respectively. All three models are equipped with leather horizontal-carry sheaths.

	Hanwei/PaulChen SH2002 (2002) Basket Hilt Backsword Code: CASIBERIASH2002 Price: $198.00 Quantity in Basket: none
Although Basket-Hilt swords appeared throughout Britain from the mid-sixteenth century on, their association with the the seventeenth and eighteenth century highlander has become legendary. Our Basket-Hilt Broadsword carries a typical Glasgow-style hilt from the mid-eighteenth century. It is likely that the blade of the original sword was made in Germany a century earlier and re-hilted as basket designs were refined. Although the blade of the original bears the “Andrea Ferara” name, it is unlikely that it was made by this renowned Spanish swordsmith, as many good quality blades of the period were so marked (in various spellings!), irrespective of the actual maker. The forged double-edged blade of our sword is in fully tempered high-carbon steel with a solid steel basket. The grip is wire-wrapped rayskin and the basket liner is of felt-covered leather.
	Hanwei/PaulChen SH2002N (2002N) BASKET-HILT BROADSWORD Code: CASIBERIASH2002N Price: $203.00 Quantity in Basket: none
Although Basket-Hilt swords appeared throughout Britian from the mid-sixteenth century on, their association with the seventeenth and eighteenth century Scottish highlander has become legendary. Early highland swords almost invariably carried the double-edged “broadsword” blade but by the time of the Battle of Culloden (1746) the single-edged “backsword” was at least equal in popularity. Both the Basket-Hilt backsword and broadsword are replicated from period pieces in the collection of the Royal Armouries in England. The Basket-Hilt Broadsword (SH2002) carries a typical Glasgow-style hilt from the mid-18th century. It is likely that the blade of the original sword was made in Germany a century earlier and re-hilted as basket designs were refined. Both the SH2002 and SH2002N have wire-wrapped ray skin handles and cloth-covered leather basket liner.
