From my Samples, Singulars, and Somethings Completely Different collection -

Jian style Practical Tai Chi sword made by Paul Chen/Hanwei. Sharp high carbon steel blade, black composite handle with chrome plated steel guard and pommel, black scabbard with chrome plated steel fittings. A very light and fast sword! This jian is available with three blade lengths: 28" blade, 30" blade, and 32" blade.

Note: this special listing is for an absolutely new and pristine jian without a scabbard. The original scabbard was sent to a client after the Canadian Post Awful ran over his package with a forklift and crushed the scabbard - said Post Orfice then dicked us around for so long on the insurance claim that I gave up and just mailed a replacement scabbard to the guy (his sword was fine).
