Comments
Ten typ został po raz pierwszy odkryty w 1932 roku, kiedy to znaleziono skarbiec w Chengde, Hebei. Dokładne przeznaczenie tych kawałków jest niepewne, ale jedna z teorii głosi, że były one używane do handlu z Xiongnu (Hunami), którzy znajdowali się na północ od stanu Yan. Inna teoria głosi, że była to lokalna odmiana zwykłych noży ze spiczastą końcówką.
