SH1012 -- Dadao
Partner Exclusive

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.
