Description
LK Chen has already put out some interesting historical replicas of Chinese swords, but this is one of those that can't help but spark some discussion due to it's design. Why does this particular jian have a disk guard? Why the slightly wider blade? Why didn't this sort of design continue?
Let's talk about it.
