The forging skill of the Achang Husa Sword

The Achang ethnic group in southwest China's Yunnan province is famous for their forging skill of the husa sword.

A special process gives the metal a pure texture, and a really sharp and durable blade.

The handles and sheaths are also inscribed with various traditional patterns, such as “flying dragon and phoenix” and “tiger roaring”, making each sword a work of art.
