Note:
* Each tree is a slightly different color, each sword is unique, please understand that the color difference of wood is not a quality issue.
* We use real brass fittings. The newly made brass is light yellow. After a period of time, brass will oxidize naturally. It's going to be darker. This gives the sword a more ancient feel. If you don't like it, you can simply sand it and the brass will lighten. Please understand that the color of brass is not a quality issue.
Jian:
The jian (劍) is a double-edged straight sword used during the last 2,500 years in China. One of the earliest specimens being the Sword of Goujian. Historical one-handed versions have blades varying from 45 to 80 centimeters (18 to 31 inches) in length. The weight of an average sword of 70-centimetre (28-inch) blade-length would be in a range of approximately 700 to 900 grams (1.5 to 2 pounds). There are also larger two-handed versions used for training by many styles of Chinese martial arts. Professional jian practitioners are referred to as jianke (剑客 "sword guests" or "swordsmen"; a term dating from the Han dynasty). In Chinese folklore, it is known as "The Gentleman of Weapons" and is considered one of the four major weapons, along with the Gun (staff), Qiang (spear), and the Dao (sabre).
