Chinese sword fitting

Hello all! Been lurking around these forums for the past few weeks and decided to break the silence! First off, I’m surprised and saddened by the lack of Chinese swords produced in well, China as opposed to all the katana hah.

Anyways, I was looking around and can’t seem to find anywhere to get sword fittings for Chinese Dao or Jian? What’s up with that? Anyone know where we can get some to our liking? Seems to be a few decent blades out there but the fittings are left to be desired more often than not. I figured I could just order up a nice blade and mount it myself since I’m a wood working artisan by trade. I saw a thread of someone who suited up his Miao Dao and it was very handsome! I was looking for Han jian fittings. LK chen’s work is nice but i find the general finished look to be lacking a bit even from a historical view point Lots of cute looking ones on Ebay but I’m a little skeptical of what I’d get in the end… Sinosword has the Otcahedral which seems nice but can’t find any reviews on it.

Does anyone have any up to date recommendations for mid range custom work? And thise damn fittings. If there’s hundreds of swords with similar ones I can’t believe we can’t get our hands on some..

Thanks in advance!
