Master Blacksmith at Work

LOONGSWORD Brand Story

Our Heritage

LOONGSWORD originates in China’s legendary Longquan region—home to master swordsmiths since ancient times. For over 2,500 years, the clang of hammer on steel has echoed through the temples and workshops here, as knowledge passed from master to apprentice.

Longquan Ancient City, nestled in Zhejiang Province, has been famed for exquisite swords and knives since the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Today, that proud tradition is alive in every LOONGSWORD blade.

Hand-Forged Craftsmanship

Blacksmith Forging

Every LOONGSWORD blade is meticulously forged by hand. Our artisans select premium steel billets, layer and fold the metal using traditional clay-tempering techniques, and polish each edge to a razor-sharp finish.

The signature hamon (temper line) that appears on our blades is both a mark of authenticity and a testament to centuries-old skills.

Material Excellence

We source only the finest materials:

  • High-Carbon Steel for battle-ready strength.
  • Damascus Steel for unique wave-pattern aesthetics.
  • Stainless Steel options for low-maintenance display pieces.

  • 🔹 Preserving ritual forging ceremonies in our workshop.
  • 🔹 Sharing stories of master smiths through our Craftsmen’s Journal.
