Longquan Swords: An Insider Look at Choosing a Forge

In this unusual unboxing, Scott M. Rodell examines sample swords from Longquan, China—not for a sponsored review, but to evaluate potential partners for future sword designs. Covering Ming dynasty Jian and Yuan dynasty Dao, Scott breaks down what truly matters in a functional, historically accurate sword: balance, weight, edge geometry, fittings, and cutting performance. He also pulls back the curtain on how most modern production swords are really made—and what is often left unsaid by major brands. If you practice Chinese swordsmanship, collect historical weapons, or want to understand what separates a real training sword from a decorative one, this video is for you.
