The Han Jian, hailing from the illustrious Han Dynasty, holds an unparalleled significance in the annals of Chinese sword history. It stands as an emblem of power and prestige, bearing a straight body with gracefully curved blades on both sides. This exceptional Han Jian sword is a testament to craftsmanship, featuring a clay-tempered blade forged from folded carbon steel. The result is a mesmerizing grain pattern known as HADA, accentuated by a genuine hamon. The clay-tempered blade marries resilience and durability, embodying both strength and flexibility.
The handle’s core is crafted from robust hardwood, meticulously encased in a tightly wound black and red silk cord, following the revered “X” pattern. To enhance its authenticity, it is adorned with a replica of an antique, high-quality brass tsuba (guard) and mountings. The scabbard is a work of art in itself, sculpted from red wood with the scabbard throat seamlessly integrated with the guard.
