With all the talk about poor-quality round handles on made-in-China Han Jian, I was interested to see the Sinosword talks about changing handle construction, with pics of how they do it.
Sadly, I'm not qualified to judge from the pics whether the new approach is any good.
Just curious, not thinking of getting this sword.
--------------------------
Also interested to see that their main/new site now shows pics of swords you can order off the shelf instead of past custom work. Fits in nicely with the comments in DSA-related threads about how someone who commissioned a nice design of their own might be unhappy to see it being sold to everyone else.
Of course they still customize, and if you need to see their past for for inspiration, their old site still lives at
www2.sinosword.com/
and an even older version at
www1.sinosword.com/
