Jian
:
The
jian
(劍) is a double-edged straight sword used during the last 2,500 years in China. The first Chinese sources that
mention the jian date to the 7th century BCE during the Spring and Autumn period; one of the
earliest
specimens being the Sword of Goujian. Historical one-handed versions have blades varying from
45 to 80 centimeters
(18 to 31 inches) in length. The weight of an average sword of 70-centimetre
(28-inch) blade-length would be in a range of
approximately 700 to 900 grams (1.5 to 2 pounds). There are
also larger two-handed versions used for training by many styles of
Chinese martial arts. Professional
jian practitioners are referred to as jianke (剑客 "sword guests" or "swordsmen";
a
term
dating
from
the
Han
dynasty). In Chinese folklore,
it is known as "The Gentleman of Weapons"
and is considered one
of the
four major
weapons, along with the Gun (staff), Qiang (spear), and the Dao (sabre).
