Han Dynasty Jian - Handmade 1095 High Carbon Steel Double Edged Chinese Straight Sword

The Han Jian is where Chinese swordsmithing reached its peak - a straight, double-edged blade designed with the kind of precision and balance that defined an entire era of warfare and ceremony. This replica captures that legacy in 1095 high carbon steel, one of the highest grades available for a blade this style.
What makes 1095 stand out is its carbon content. More carbon means a harder blade that takes and holds a finer edge. Both edges are hand-finished, giving this Jian the clean symmetry that makes the Han Dynasty style so distinctive. The blade is straight, rigid, and tapers to a sharp point - built for thrusting as much as cutting, just like the historical originals.
The handle is carved from hardwood with a natural grain finish that feels warm and organic in your grip. Silver-toned alloy fittings at the guard, pommel, and scabbard mounts feature intricate engraved patterns that pop against the dark wood. It's the kind of detail you notice more the longer you look at it.
At 30.7 inches overall and 3.3 lbs, it's compact compared to some of the longer Chinese swords, which makes it very manageable for single-handed use. The rosewood scabbard with matching silver fittings completes the presentation - this piece looks exceptional on a wall mount or displayed in a study.
Customers have called this one a "work of art" and praised the clean finish and fast shipping. If you're into Chinese historical dramas, collect traditional Han Dynasty pieces, or just appreciate a beautifully crafted blade with real edge performance - this Jian punches well above its price point.
