Good evening,
I have been collecting japanese nihonto for a while now but i recently gained interest in other asian swords.
Yesterday i came across with a Jian sword and i would like some advice as i know nothing about these.The thing is that imo fittings look cheap and fake,but i have seen that this seems to be the case in many of these chinesse swords.
The blade however,seems quite nice.
It shows rust,patina and partially faded the 7 gold stars in both sides,and also has three fullers.
If i had to decide i would say is fake but as i don´t know anything about chinesse swords i would like to ask for advice,
Thanks,
Jose
