Moonlight Sword Jian

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

Completed with a hardwood, wrapped with pure copper handle & scabbard, and pure copper fittings – all of which are hand carved & very complex illustrations, plated in real gold & silver. 

Prized for collection, display and ceremonial use, and a formidable Chinese war sword.
