Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars
The Yu Jian Sword is a special sword that is carried by the head of the Lee Family. It previously belonged to Huang Lee's father until his murder, after which Huang is tasked to bring it to Liberty City to his uncle and the new family patriarch, Wu "Kenny" Lee.
Yu Jian serves as the central element of GTA Chinatown Wars' story, being stolen in the first mission, after which Huang works tirelessly to search for it until the end of the game. In the final mission, Kenny, who engineered Yu Jian's theft in the first place, uses the sword to stab Hsin Jaoming before attacking Huang with it. After Huang kills Kenny, the latter drops the sword, but it cannot be picked up by the player.

Trivia
Grand Theft Auto V
The unused Sword at Lester's House.
- The sword exists in the Grand Theft Auto V game files but it is not available and is unusable, as it has no actual code to function as a weapon. Only the graphics of it exist. It is possible to display it through hacking but it will not function and will be treated merely as if it was a clothing object.
- There is a replica sword in a red display case at the end of the entranceway in Lester's House.
