Chinese Curved Sword

This mixture is then folded multiple times to remove impurities, creating many hundreds of individual steel layers, producing arguably the best sword-making steel available, a technique renowned for smithing the finest combat sword blades. 

Further promoting perfection, is the very difficult process of clay-tempering the blade. This process precisely facilitates hardening of the blade’s edge, while leaving the blade’s core and spine softer and thus resilient. Definitely a marker of advanced sword-making technology and visibly identifiable on this sword’s blade.

Very similar in design to a Japanese Katana sword, with exception to its lengthy 34cm handle, compared to a Katana’s 26cm handle length. With this extra handle length, this regional classic Chinese sabre sword, has the capacity to produce devastatingly powerful cutting and slashing blows, as well as effective thrusting attacks. 

Assuredly one of the world’s most formidable combat swords ever created.
