About Us:

What:

Jin Shi is an online store that carries a variety of swords and blades of martial, historical, and cultural significance. Please sign up for our newsletter to receive notifications of special promotions and new product information.

Why:

Many people believe Chinese martial traditions have been watered down with the overwhelming popularity of contemporary performance Wushu and health oriented Tai Ji. While these arts do have their place in today’s society, it is imperative to keep the contemporary arts separate from the old martial traditions. The majority of today’s products are designed by companies with only the contemporary arts in mind. Unfortunately, this spreads more misconceptions and inaccuracies than anything else. As fans of tradition, we believe the greatest sources of knowledge come from our predecessors.

How:

We hope to help accomplish this by offering reasonably priced quality products that closely approximate historical examples and by directing interested parties to reliable resources.
