My dad found this sword while working on a millionaire's home. The past home owner had been a sword collector and my father found it under the floors. I have no information on them and haven't found anything like them online. If anyone could tell me anything I’d be very greatful.

    Can you add anything about the materials used on the hilt? Do the blades look like they carried an edge?

    Please supply their measurements (e.g. length) and take close up photos of the hilt from both sides, as well as the markings and the metal parts on the sheath. If possible take them under a better light. Also, it's probably easier if you just lay them down flat on a table or some flat surface. When you try to fit the whole blade in a photo, the blurriness of the camera at required distance makes it difficult to see some details.

    I'd be curious for more info on the previous owner too, if you have it. I'm betting there's an interesting story behind why they felt the need to hide them under the floorboards...

That looks like a Chinese double sword



Similar examples



  • Chinese Shuangjian Double Sword

  • A Fine Chinese Double Sword Set, Shuang Jian


Note. In many countries, mislaid belongings still legally belong to the original owner (or their heirs), not to the building/land owner and not to the finder.
