Small Chinese dao
Hi,
This sword measures only 76 cm in the scabbard and the blade is 53 cm long. Previously, I heard somewhere that such small daos were made for tourists. But I don't think so since both the handle and scabbard show signs of frequent wear. The sword is also nicely balanced if held at the beginning of its large hilt. Unfortunately, I don't know anything more about that sword.... (I bought it in Prague antique shop) Best, Martin |
