: Hi Mauro,
:
: I do not know when exactly straight
: sword was introduced into
: Xinyi/Xingyi curriculum, but believe
: it happened relatively late,
: probably in early 20th century. Just
: like many other weapons, sword is
: very much based on empty hand
: techniques, and is not considered an
: important weapon in Xinyi/Xingyi
: curriculum, unlike spear.
:
: FWIW,

: Thanks a lot Jarek.
: An historical doubt: Jian seems to
: be not very represented in Xin Yi
: Liu He Quan. On the other hand, both
: Hebei and Shanxi styles use the
: straight sword.
: Do you know when this weapon was
: introduced in the Xing Yi tradition?
: Mauro.

: Hi Mauro,
:
: It is true that there are dozens of
: VCDs circulating i China that are
: not in wide distribution, however
: I'm not aware of any material on
: Xinyi Straight Sword. AFAIK the only
: description of Xinyi Jian can be
: found in Li Xinmin's book.

: Dear Jarek,
: can you suggest me a VCD, if there
: one, containing Xin Yi straight
: sword instruction?
: I'm aware that there are many Xinyi
: VCDs in chinese that are not sold on
: english language web sites...
: Any suggestion is very much
: appreciated...
: Thanks a lot,
: Mauro.
