The Dragon's Lineage: Pattern Steel and a Real Straight Blade

A Masterpiece of Folded Steel

The heart of this Tang Dao is its exceptional blade. Meticulously hand-forged from multiple layers of steel, the blade showcases a breathtaking grain pattern that is unique to the art of folded steel. This process, also known as Damascus steel forging, not only creates a blade of remarkable visual beauty but also enhances its strength and flexibility. The blade’s unique, straight single-edged design is true to the historical Tang Dao, a feature that distinguishes it from later, more curved Chinese broadswords.

Fittings of Imperial Authority

The sword's fittings are a work of art that beautifully convey its theme of imperial power. The detailed brass tsuba and other fittings all feature a majestic dragon motif, symbolizing imperial authority and good fortune. This powerful theme is carried through to the pommel and scabbard fittings, creating a cohesive and stunning aesthetic. The handle is built with genuine rayskin for an excellent grip and wrapped in black cord for a refined finish.
