The Blade is a 1995 Hong Kong wuxia film directed, produced and co-written by Tsui Hark, who also co-edited it. It is his homage to The One-Armed Swordsman (1967), retold in a raw, feverish style unlike anything else in his work.
Vincent Zhao stars, with Xiong Xinxin, Moses Chan, Valerie Chow and Sonny Song.
A young worker at a sword foundry learns that his real father was killed by a bandit called Lung. Setting out for revenge, he runs into vicious desert gangs and loses his right arm. Nursed back to health, he teaches himself to fight with a broken blade and returns to face Lung.
Is it a remake of The One-Armed Swordsman? It is a reimagining that borrows the idea of a one-armed hero and tells its own story.
Who directed it? Tsui Hark.
For Chang Cheh and Jimmy Wang Yu's 1960s swordplay, try The Assassin (1967) DVD. For a modern Chinese wuxia, see The Butcher's Blade (2026) DVD.
