I like the looks of it, but I'm on sword-buying hiatus until may. I say go for it, shadow, and tell us what you think.  |

I've got to wait until after I find out the shipping cost for the SBG Longsword. I may or may not have enough in my "Random Spending" fund for one.

Ah, screw it. I bit the bullet and ordered one from Sword Nation. Hopefully, it'll get here before I head back to college, or I'll have to wait a week or two before I see it.

Yeah, I think I'll get one, but it will have to wait until summer. Minimum.
I can wait.
I can wait.

I'm very excited to finally see a jian on the market that was designed by Scott Rodell. I haven't decided whether to pick one of these up so I look forward to hearing some reviews as people get some experience with it.

Liam, thanks for the link to chinese-swords-guide.com! I was unaware of them, and they're offering this sword for $369 AUD including postage. Sweet deal! I was saving for the Hanwei Bastard Sword, but I may have to divert the funds this way instead...
Cheers

Poohze, you are welcome. Linda Heenan, has a wonderful resource available for those of us who study Chinese Sword Arts, and I try to visit her site on a regular basis. Shipping is a big problem for you guys in the land down under, and while some of the items you can get from American and Canadian vendors, there would be (I'm assuming) a lot less customs issues buying domestically. She also carries Huanuo Forge blades, and I believe some antiques. She also has the only Chinese Gambeson & Tasset pattern I have been able to find. (It was developed as a joint effort between Mrs. Heenan and Scott Rodell.)
