The China Double Edged Swords market was valued at US$35.7 million in 2024 and is projected to reach US$46.8 million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 4.6% during the forecast period. This steady growth reflects the sustained cultural significance of these weapons in Chinese martial arts heritage, combined with expanding global interest in historical weaponry.
Double-edged swords have maintained their importance in Chinese culture as both martial arts training tools and cultural artifacts. The growing collector’s market, coupled with increasing participation in historical martial arts, continues to drive demand. Recent trends show particular strength in high-end craftsmanship, with museums and private collectors seeking authentic replicas of famous historical swords.

Market Overview & Regional Analysis
China dominates domestic production with over 80% of double-edged swords being manufactured in traditional blade-making regions such as Longquan and Datong. These areas benefit from centuries of metallurgical expertise and government support for preserving traditional crafts. While the domestic market absorbs about 60% of production, growing international demand, particularly from Southeast Asia and North America, accounts for the remainder.
Regional markets show varying growth patterns – coastal provinces demonstrate stronger commercial demand, while inland areas maintain more traditional martial arts applications. Export markets are particularly strong in countries with significant Chinese diaspora communities and martial arts practitioners, though recent trade policies have introduced some shipping complexities.
Key Market Drivers and Opportunities
The market benefits from multiple growth drivers including the global popularity of wuxia films and historical dramas, increasing martial arts tourism to China, and rising interest in traditional Chinese culture worldwide. About 40% of recent demand comes from cultural preservation initiatives, while 35% stems from martial arts training needs.
Significant opportunities exist in three key areas: premium collectibles catering to high-net-worth individuals, training swords for martial arts schools (notably the growing Brazilian and European markets), and decorative pieces for the interior design sector. Manufacturers focusing on certificate of authenticity programs and historical accuracy commands 20-30% price premiums in most markets.
Challenges & Restraints
The industry faces several challenges including regulatory scrutiny on bladed weapon exports, competition from cheaper stainless steel replicas, and skill shortages in traditional forging techniques. Export restrictions in some countries have created logistical hurdles, though most professional martial arts organizations successfully navigate these through proper certification.
