Chinese Straight Sword

Equipped with a folded, T10 steel sword blade, this refined, modern high-carbon steel is repeatedly folded multiple times, creating many hundreds of individual steel layers, finally producing arguably the best sword-making steel available.

Blade characteristics include a tough, hard and very reliable, sharp battle edge, along with very good blade elasticity and desirable resilience. The process and technique is renowned for smithing the finest combat sword blades, and certainly forms a very lethal foundational core to this Jian Chinese sword.

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 through a very special pattern, on this sword’s blade. 

Completed with a genuine aged Sandalwood handle and scabbard, and solid brass fittings, this classic Chinese Jian sword is truly premium quality in its entirety. 

Fit for high-end collection, a pleasure to own, and a versatile, deadly weapon use.
