What word begins with 'h', ends with 'n', contains six letters, and contains eight words besides itself without transposing a single letter?

The word HEAVEN contains HE, HEAVE, EVE, EVEN, AN, HAVE, HEN and A. (I assume it's OK to drop letters that fall between letters of the found words, so long as letters are not transposed.) More obscure words in this one are AVE, EAVE and HA.
