#sword #jian

This is my video on the LK Chen Grand Marshal Ming Jian. It was loaned to me by LK Chen, but you can buy one new for roughly $450 including shipping - check the link below. In this video, I give my quick impressions and thoughts on this beautiful sword, and I'm right up front that this is one of my favorites from the batch LK Chen sent me.

Joining me in this video is Andy from @dlatrexswords, to talk about the historical context of this type of sword. If you haven't checked out his channel, make sure you do!

You can buy one of these swords direct from LK Chen: lkchensword.com/shop-1/ols/products/grand-marshal-ming-jian
