The Longquan Sword is one of China’s most iconic weapons. Listed as part of the National Intangible Cultural Heritage, to this day Longquan Swords are still made by master swordsmiths who follow the ancient traditions of forging. A Longquan Sword blade weighing a kilogram requires a piece of pig iron three to five times heavier, which must be hammered tens of thousands of times. Traditionally, forging a Longquan Sword involves more than 20 processes. Many of them can only be performed by a highly experienced swordsmith. 00:00 A view of Longquan in Zhejiang province which gives birth to Longquan sword 01:18 An introduction of sword in Chinese history 02:09 Swordmaster Shen Xinpei explains why Longquan is famous for its swordmaking 03:21 The raw material of swordmaking: iron sand 04:55 The forging process of Longquan sword 09:33 The cultural significance of sword 12:38 The presentation of decorating hilt by swordmaster Hu Xiaojun 17:16 Revealing a meteorite iron sword’s beauty under a microscope 21:03 Sword dance introduced by Hu Yang, principal dance, China National Opera & Dance Drama Theater ------------------------- SOCIAL MEDIA： Facebook: CGTN Inheritors (  / cgtn.inheritors  ) Instagram: @cgtn_inheritors (  / cgtn_inheritors  ) Twitter: @cgtn_inheritors (  / inheritors12  ) #longquan #sword #swordmaster #swordmaker #crafts #craftsman #chineseculture #forging #sworddance #chinesedance #intangibleculturalheritage
