Wang Jin Ge, a practitioner of Baji Quan, demonstrates a beautiful pattern of the Chun Yang Straight Sword. Wang Jin Ge is a young man and there are still many years of practice ahead of him, but here he gives a surprisingly mature performance of this most difficult of weapons. Demonstrations of straight sword in the modern day usually involve either the slow internal style of swordplay, or the competition wushu style with fast and elaborate movements designed to be pleasing to the eye. A traditional straight sword pattern from an external style such as done here is very rare.
