Longquan 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 mix of steels, only the blade’s edges are finely ground-away. Leaving the blade’s core with its naturally formed patterns, preserved as a feature, and as a testament to the sword maker’s skill & dedication.

Completed with a hardwood, wrapped with stingray-skin scabbard, solid brass fittings, and a hardwood, wrapped with stingray-skin handle, forming a traditional, practical and effective hand-grip.
