Magic Jian

Epic Armoury’s Magic Jian is a slender and elegant latex hybrid weapon inspired by Chinese tradition. The sword is 100 cm long and features a blade designed to look like rippling dark blue water. The small crossguard is 9 cm wide and oval shaped, protecting the 13 cm handle, cast and painted to look like green lacquered wood and metal carvings.

This Jian sword is our highest quality gear due to its impressive durability and detail. The blade is made from closed cell foam around a fiberglass core and finished with a strong latex coating, while the handle is a polyurethane foam cast that allows for greater detail and no maintenance. This hybrid model sword will make you confident in the safety and appeal of your weapon on the battlefield.

• Available in Viridian Green, Alluvium Blue and Aether Purple colors
