Hi all,
Please have a look at my latest aquisition. I've always wanted a big Dao, I really wanted a curved classic 'oxtail' (niu wei) Dao, but who am I to refuse fate. So, here it is, I think this shape is military style? Is it a 'Goose Quill' (yan mao) Dao? The handle fittings and thick cord binding have been painted with some kind of black pitch at some stage, looks like long ago. Opinions and any information please, I know nothing! Date? Boxer? Dimensions: 90cm (36") Weight 1500g (just under 3 1/2 lb) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
