The Dipper Sword and Long- Handled Broadsword

Here I show too you the supersized "Dipper Sword" and "Long- Handled Broadsword" exhibited in Kunming China. The first one is definitely only for showing "Power" while the second one actually could have been used in battle. I quoted the description. Its a little chinglish (Chinese English) so you can see if it was used or not by yourself.

" The Dipper Sword
A sword was an important weapon in ancient times. Chen Yongbin cast the Dipper Sword in the Qing
Dynasty (1671). The Dipper Sword was made in fine cast iron, with weights 20 Kilograms. The two sides of the sword were carved seven boronze stars. The symbolic meaning of the design is best summarized "慧剑高悬，常伏魔制怪" ; their English equivalent is " The Sword OF Wisdom Uphangs In The Golden Temple,Often Vanquish Demons And Monster". Ths was a magic weapon of Zhenwu Emperor"

"Wu Sangui Long-handled Broadsword
