Faceted Tips on Chinese Swords? (Split from HOS Catalogue thread)

Josh, is it possible that there is *no bibliography* about chinese swords
depicting the sword you've found in the site ? I can't believe there is no
printed timeline for swords of such a civilization out there.
Anyway, the link is fruitful. I think the author doesn't base the drawings
on japanese examples. Every other info on that page is clearly of chinese
origin. Take a look to the cross sections of swords and you'll notice the
presence of the one that is interesting us and that have as a natural
byproduct the Yokote. Very interesting the info about the textures
and their timelines too.
