dtstiachi Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Check out this website for a Tai Chi sword http://www.rsw.com.hk/carp.htm I don't know that much about the guy but he has some great reviews and his sword looks really good. Also check out Tai Chi swords by Paul Chen at http://www.weaponmasters.com/?ID=WEAPONS&ITEM=PC-1013GT Both swords cost around between $400-$500 but I have read great reviews about both sword makers and swords. I am not to the point where I am using the sword yet, but one day I will own a fine Tai Chi sword, and from what I can tell, both of these are top quality. I hope this helps.

Sauzin Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 Take a look at this web site as well... http://www.dguertin.com/ I went a slightly cheeper route and got the Paul Chen practical tai chi sword. http://www.swordarmory.com/chinese/2008gt.htm I really like the balance on the sword I have but it's not really any good for cutting. The only two things that stand between an effective art and one that isn't are a tradition to draw knowledge from and the mind to practice it.

Sauzin Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 I've also heard that these swords were decent considering the price (around $50). http://stores.ebay.com/JW-INTERNATIONAL-USA_Category-1-CHINESE-SWORDS_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZ1QQftidZ2QQtZkm They aren't anything spectacular but if you are on a budget they aren't bad.

Hogosha Posted March 13, 2005 Share Posted March 13, 2005 https://www.blades-uk.com have a couple of great Paul Chen Tai Chi swords for pretty cheap prices. Look around there or ebay is your next best place. - Hogosha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
