Ox-Tail Dao

With its traditional ox-tail design, distal-tapered blade and hand-tied grip, the dao handles very well. A brass-mounted wooden scabbard is included.

Sharp and not flexible

Practical Broadsword

(Ref: HW2063)

The Practical Gongfu Broadsword sword is a further extension of our “Practical” Series. Featuring a distal-tapered high carbon steel blade, wrapped grip and steel fittings, the dao is a traditional ox-tail design. The textured wooden scabbard is designed with a slotted opening, which makes both for easy sheathing and graceful lines. In line with other swords in the “Practical” series, the Practical Gongfu Broadsword is very affordable.

Distal-tapered high carbon steel blade
Wooden scabbard
Sharp and rigid

Song Sword

(Ref: HW2074)

Our Song Sword exemplifies both the traditional values and the commitment to quality of the craftsmen of Hanwei. Patterned after a Song Dynasty sword, this version features a folded K120C powder steel blade in the traditional willow-leaf design, with exquisite patterning and deep fullers. The solid bronze guard has a “flying goose” motif on the grip side, with traditional “good fortune” designs on the reverse, repeated on the pommel and scabbard fittings. The grip is leather-wrapped over sharkskin, which also covers the scabbard. The beauty of the Song sword belies the fact that it is fully functional, with great inherent strength, balance and cutting ability.

Key Features

Authentic styling
Folded Swedish powder steel blade
Fully functional

Dadao Sword

(Ref: HW1012)

Long the traditional weapon of China’s peasant armies, the Dadao, or big sword, was used with deadly effect as late as the 1930’s in the Sino-Japanese War. Its single- or two-handed versatility, combined with the tremendous slashing power of its weight-forward blade made it the ideal close-quarters weapon. Although the originals had no scabbard, a simple carrying case is provided for protection and ease of transportation.
