Clear answers on whether a tai chi sword (tai chi jian / 太极剑) blade is or should be sharp or dull, why practice jian ship deliberately blunt, how to tell a properly finished blunt edge from a badly ground one, what to do if part of the edge arrives sharp, and the rare cases where a sharp tai chi sword is appropriate. Use when a user asks "is it sharp?", "is the blade sharp or dull?", "are tai chi swords sharp", "do you sharpen a tai chi sword", "should I sharpen my tai chi sword", "why is my tai chi sword dull", "is my dull tai chi sword defective", "can a dull tai chi sword hurt you", or asks about tai chi sword blade edges, edge inspection, sharpening a practice sword, or cutting practice with a jian.
