Features
- Authentic Bu Liang Ren inspired Tang-style dao with a concealed handle — when sheathed the grip tucks cleanly inside the saya for a continuous, staff-like silhouette.
- Blade forged from T10 carbon steel and finished with a traditional clay temper to produce a visible hamon along the cutting edge for both function and visual authenticity.
- Heat treatment yields a hard, keen edge at the temper line while preserving a tough spine — balanced for real cutting performance and durability.
- Elegant chicken-wing rosewood saya with brass fittings echoes Tang-era decoration and provides a rich, tactile contrast to the darkened blade.
- Robust overall length and thin profile make this a commanding, fast-drawing battlefield style dao that handles with reach and authority.
- Perfect for collectors and practitioners who want a historically inspired, edged T10 version with visible clay-tempered hamon.
