Chinese Jian Damascus Steel Sword Peony Blade

The "Peony Jian" sword, named after the traditional and China-exclusive peony woody tree that has grown for over 1,500 years, is a cultural symbol for many Chinese people, representing wealth and honor. It boasts a double-edged straight blade with a traditional Chinese tassel adorning its pommel; the metal is crafted from the Damascus Steel that has been folded to reveal vibrant and lively patterns across the blade.

Hand-polished, the blade has been traditionally clay tempered to enhance its hardness and to give it an authentic hamon. The one-handed handle and the scabbard are both light ebony wood, with brass fittings all enriched with Chinese peony plants. The sword, which comes with a free bag, can be functional, decorative, or Tai Chi spiritual depending on the desired sharpness level.
