All sounds of nature bow in silence."

The Roaring Authority: Long Yin (《龍吟》)

The Long Yin (Dragon's Roar) is not a blade for the faint of heart. It is a Heavyweight Masterpiece designed for those who understand that true power has weight.

Weighing over 4.5 lbs (2.04kg) with an imposing 0.9cm blade thickness (industry standard is 0.7cm), this Han Jian feels substantial and authoritative. It features a striking visual contrast: the deep, aged tones of Sourwood (酸枝木) and Antique Copper, pierced by a bold Red Battle-Wrap handle—symbolizing the fiery spirit within a calm exterior.

The Ultimate Gift for Him: Weight & Power

If you are looking for the definitive "Man's Romance," this is it. The Long Yin offers an undeniable tactile experience. The moment he lifts it, the sheer density of the heavy blade communicates quality and permanence. It is the perfect centerpiece for an executive office or a private collection, commanding respect without saying a word.

The Blade: Heavyweight Folded Steel
Forged from Pattern Steel (Damascus), the blade features thousands of folded layers resembling flowing water. It has undergone traditional Clay Tempering, creating a genuine, misty Hamon along the edge. With a spine thickness of 0.9cm, this blade is built for structural integrity and powerful forms practice.

The Fittings: Antique Dragon Motif
The fittings are precision-cast from Pure Copper with a vintage antique finish. The guard depicts the "Open-Mouth Dragon" (開口龍), capturing the moment of a roar. The scabbard is crafted from premium Sourwood, a rare hardwood known for its high density and ability to age gracefully.

⚒️ A Note on Craftsmanship: The Evolution of Design

The Master Concept (Lifestyle Images):
Our lifestyle gallery showcases the Original Master Prototype. These images capture the idealized spirit, balance, and the visible grain of the folded steel as originally conceived by our master smiths.

The Living Blade (Actual Product):
Unlike mass-produced factory items (where every piece is identical), Shogun Blade operates in small, artisanal batches.

Mold Evolution: We frequently hand-refine our copper molds to improve structural integrity, which means specific details on the fittings (e.g., the Dragon's expression or Cloud flow) evolve from batch to batch.
Hand-Chased Finish: After casting, every intricate copper fitting is individually hand-chased and polished. No two artisans carve a line exactly the same way.

What This Means:
While the overall silhouette remains true to the photos, please expect organic variations in the engraving details. Please refer to the Studio Macro Shots for the exact specifications of the current batch you will receive.
