The process and technique is renowned for smithing the finest combat sword blades, and certainly forms a very lethal foundational core to this Jian weapon.
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.
