Here's #3 out of 100 for our Shenlong jian model. This one was ordered with polished fittings and white rayskin wrap on the grip.

Some specs:

OAL: 38.75"
Blade: 31" (ended up being a little shorter than the 32" we cut out when forging the tip and sharpening)
Grip: 5.25"
Blade width @ guard: 1.375"
Weight: 2.11 lbs
POB: ~4" from guard

The original steel masters were acid etched. Then they were cast in bronze to have the final result you see here.
