• Longquan origin: Newly manufactured in Longquan, Zhejiang, China.

Specifications

Specification note: Metric measurements have been used as the reference because the supplied inch conversions do not correspond exactly. Handmade dimensions may vary slightly between production batches.

Materials and Construction

The straight, double-edged blade is supplier-listed as folded or pattern steel and receives quenching during production. The term “Damascus steel” is sometimes used commercially for this patterned appearance; it does not identify historical crucible Damascus steel or confirm a particular alloy combination, layer count, hardness, or internal structure.

The fittings are supplier-listed as brass and display engraved ornamental detailing. The exact brass composition and manufacturing method have not been independently verified. Tang construction and quantified blade flexibility have not been provided.

Green Textured Handle and Scabbard

Both the wooden handle and matching wooden scabbard have a fine green textured covering. Supplier source material refers to this covering as “shark skin”; however, its composition, authenticity, and species have not been documented. LOONGSWORD therefore represents it as a green textured wrap rather than confirmed genuine animal skin.

Tai Chi Jian Presentation

The straight blade, compact guard, coordinated scabbard, and suspended tassel create a contemporary Tai Chi Jian presentation. This is a newly manufactured sword inspired by Chinese Jian aesthetics and is not represented as a museum-certified reproduction of a specific historical artifact.
