The Nine Dragon Straightsword stands among the Shen Guang Long family forge’s premium line of jians.
Blade: The blade is hand-forged Damascus steel, suitable for combat usage and cutting. It is full-tang and made specifically for the fittings used, making a tight and sturdy bond. There is a seven star Little Dipper constellation engraved on one side and “Shen Guang Long” engraved on the other. This sword is shipped sharpened.
Scabbard and fittings: The scabbard and handle are made from aged Ebony, making them both very strong and aesthetically pleasing with a very dark, almost black wood color. The fittings on both the sword and scabbard are made from solid brass. Please note that the tassel provided is different from the one pictured; the actual tassel is black in color, with green beads and a white jade stone.
