Miao dao is a unique and rare weapon in Chinese martial arts and its true art is taught in obscurity.

It was especially prevalent in the Ming dynasty where it was employed successfully in repelling foreign pirates and invaders.

The miao dao's long handle allowed the large weapon to be maneuvered with the dexterity of a single handed weapon and also allowed for excellent power delivery due to its two-handed leverage.

The design of this Duo Liu Miao Dao is based on the actual antique sword, found in TianJin, China.

The blade is hand forged from high carbon manganese steel with differential heat treat, quenched and tempered for optimal edge hardness and overall resilience.

The Enlightenment stamp has been engraved onto the blade during forging, our mark of quality approval.

Note the unique double edged blade tip, the unique shape of hand guard, and the sharp brass tip on the end of scabbard (it was originally purposed for use of secondary thrust weapon) are the signature design of Duo Liu Miao Dao which differentiated itself from other later Miao Dao designs.

The scabbard and handle are made from natural Chinese Sourwood, fitted with solid aged brass fittings, in combine with the well balanced full functional combat blade. This Duo Liu Miao Dao is simply authentic and practical!

This Duo Liu Miao Dao is highly collectible, ideal for serious swordsman and people who appreciate a bit of history.
