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 (often called a hand-and-a-half sword), 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. Overall length: 37.5” Weight: 2 lbs 5 oz
