The Han Sword is a cavalry
pattern from the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220) which reunited China and
established boundaries very similar to those existing today. The
rosewood grip and scabbard are inlaid with silver in an intricate scroll
pattern, while the gilded steel guard, pommel and scabbard decorations
feature the "crouching tiger" motif. The random pattern
Damascus blade, with its ridged central fuller and reinforce point is
admirably suited for slashing cuts and powerful thrusts from horseback.
The blade is 28.25" long and the sword is 37.625" overall.
