Overview
APOC - Tactical Jian
Find peace and balance amidst the chaos through the steel...
The Atrim Tactical Jian represents further evidence of Gus Trim’s knowledge of shaping steel with form and balance. Incredibly light and graceful, the Tactical Jian gently glides through the air with little resistance and rests well in the hand for easy thrusts and swings. The well-tempered blade of 9260 high carbon steel with a blackened finish is counter balanced by the handle and features a traditionally shaped design, which can easily double as a skull cracker for those less enlightened opponents. Possessing all of the features known to APOC swords, this will be a welcome addition to your Gus Trim APOC collection.
The black textured fiberglass sheaths are fitted to a Molle compatible kydex platform which allows you to secure your swords to a belt or pack in multiple carry positions. For belt or sling carry setups, the platform has four slots 1 3/8" long and 1/8" wide. A notch in the handle and the platform allows for stealth unsheathing as well as locking the sword securely for inverted maneuvers. No preparations for the end times are complete without an APOC tactical sword... for when the bullets run out, the knives are too short and your life is on the line.

received sword, was in very nice condition. straight and symmetrical. edge was good medium shape. took to shop and honed to very shape. Very nice practical sword. not too long or short. Good weight and balance. Happy with mu purchase.
Love this sword! I have 4 APOC swords now (Longsword, Broadsword, Jian and Gladius). My favorites so far are the longsword and this one! This thing is light, balanced and sharp as heck straight from APOC. Very light and quick in the hand. I would highly recommend this, especially for what you get for the price.
I’ve got 4 of the APOC swords (longsword, broadsword, gladius and the jian). Love them all. My favorites are the longsword and this one. The Jian is very light and quick in the hand. Got the factory edge and it was paper cutting sharp. Honed it up a bit and it zips right through water bottles, etc. I like the full, one-piece through tangs and tactical grips on these. Very sturdy and easy to reshape or even replace. The pommel is a good skull-crusher/window breaker but this one does not have a lanyard hole. I actually like having those on these post-apocalyptic style swords. I also like the scabbards. It’s very easy to attach them to belts or MOLLE. If you’re looking for practical bush, camping or post-apocalyptic type blades, you really can’t beat these for the price.
