"A picture I made some time ago for students to learn the names of parts of the Jian. I think we should strive to use the traditional terminology more, it is a sign of respect for the culture and the art of Chinese swordplay and shows our sincerity and dedication to the art. The design is based from a picture ofGraham Cave's Tigers Den mujian (wooden jian) which are the training swords we prefer." Paul Andrews - Xingyi Academy
