Product Details
The Chinese Dao is one of the most iconic bladed weapons in martial arts history - a single-edged saber designed for powerful, sweeping cuts. This particular Dao is modeled after the Qing Dynasty military broadsword, the kind of blade that saw real battlefield use across centuries of Chinese warfare.
The blade is hand-forged from 1045 carbon steel, a proven mid-carbon alloy that delivers solid edge retention while remaining tough enough to absorb impact without chipping. At 27.5 inches, the blade has that classic Dao curvature near the tip that concentrates cutting force right where you need it. It comes with a hand-finished edge out of the box.
The handle is 17.7 inches long - generous enough for comfortable two-handed grip, which is how the Dao was traditionally wielded. The hardwood grip is wrapped in a red diamond-pattern cord for secure handling, and the alloy guard and pommel feature traditional Chinese design motifs.
The rosewood scabbard is a standout. Deep red lacquer with dragon relief carvings running the length of it - it looks incredible on display and protects the blade well for storage. Alloy fittings at the mouth and tip add structural reinforcement and visual detail.
At 46 inches overall and 5 lbs, this is a substantial piece. It has real presence in your hands and makes a serious impression on a wall mount. Whether you're a collector drawn to Qing Dynasty military history, a martial artist training with traditional Chinese weapons, or looking for a statement piece that commands attention in any room - this Dao delivers.
