Overview
Honshu Parang with Sheath
The Honshu Parang brings modern materials and design to a classic and powerful Filipino fighting blade. Though quick in the hand, this large dagger (or short sword) maintains an authoritative heft for powerful chopping and hacking due to its wide and thick-spined blade. The blade is crafted from stainless steel and the ergonomically formed thermoplastic grip which is optimized for a sure and well-fitted handhold, as well as being hard-wearing and waterproof. Included with the Honshu Parang is crafted from stitched, faux leather with retaining straps and a belt loop for wear.
