The Hanwei Pudao Chinese Martial Arts Weapon by Paul Chen was originally an infantry weapon and has been adopted into the martial arts and its use in the hands of a skilled practitioner is spectacular. Our Pudao is a weapon to be coveted by infantry of old and modern martial artists alike. The high-carbon tempered steel blade has an aggressive distal taper to promote quickness and balance and a long tang for strength, while the oak staff is tightly tape wrapped in a traditional pattern to optimize handling and adds to the distinctive appearance, as do the dragon-head bronzed steel blood cup and bell tassel.

This weapon is actually discontinued. I can only guess that BTS still has it because it listed under oriental swords and not polearms, and they do not say that it is a Hanwei. That said. I have been looking for a replacement to my old Hanwei Pudao, and I am overjoyed to find one. Truly a fantastic weapon. My last one only broke after 4 years of heavy use, and after slashing about 20 wooden posts to splinters.
