Chinese Jian (劍)
Chinese Jian – Traditional Chinese Straight Sword | Hand Forged Double-Edged Jian
Discover the elegance and precision of the Chinese Jian (剑), one of the oldest and most respected traditional Chinese swords. Known as the double-edged straight sword, the Jian symbolizes refinement, skill, and discipline in Chinese martial arts culture.
At HanBon Forge, each Chinese Jian is hand forged using traditional sword-making techniques combined with modern heat treatment, delivering a perfect balance of sharpness, flexibility, and durability for martial arts training, tai chi practice, and collectors.
The Jian is historically regarded as the “gentleman of weapons,” widely used by scholars, warriors, and martial artists. Its straight double-edged blade design allows for precise thrusting, controlled cutting, and fluid movement, making it ideal for Tai Chi Jian, Wushu performance, and traditional sword training.
