The sword was found sheathed in a wooden scabbard finished in black lacquer. The scabbard had an almost air-tight fit with the sword body. Unsheathing the sword revealed an untarnished blade, despite the tomb being soaked in underground water for over 2,000 years.
The Sword of Goujian still has a sharp blade and shows no signs of tarnish.

How is it they can make something like this? They had advanced technology. Don't make them like this any more, especially in China
