Chinese Jian Sword

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. 

Leaving a true identifier, the very beautiful & unique patterns formed by the above crucible mix of steels, only the blade’s edges are finely ground-away. Leaving the blade’s core with its natural crucible-forge patterns, preserved as a feature, and as a testament to the sword maker’s skill & dedication.
