I need material showing details of Han jian blade geometry, specifically for octagonal and Hexagonal blades. I know theres plenty of infographs for various styles of Katana blade geometry but I'm having a harder time finding the same for Chinese blades. Reason I'm asking is because I want to commission a fantasy blade with jian influences but I don't any references to draw out a decent blueprint for what I want, and also want to have the material ready to send to the smith since he likely doesnt have much experience with chinese blades.

Thomas Chen's website comes to mind:
You could also look around on LKChen Swords' website too, although a lot of the info is for pre-Han warring states period stuff.
