Unparalleled Craftsmanship & Symbolic Design

A Blade Forged to Perfection

• Clay Tempered Damascus Steel: The heart of this Eagle Dao is its robust, hand-forged Damascus folded steel blade. The steel is folded to create thousands of layers, resulting in a beautiful and authentic grain pattern (HADA). The blade then undergoes a precise clay tempering process, creating a prominent and beautiful hamon (temper line), which selectively hardens the edge for superior sharpness while keeping the spine flexible.

• Masterful Hazuya Polish: The blade receives a meticulous Hazuya polish, a specialized technique that enhances the natural beauty of the steel's layers and its visible hamon. This intensive polishing process brings out the intricate details and gives the blade its signature gleam.

• Full Tang Construction: For superior strength, balance, and durability, the blade is constructed with a full tang, extending through the entire handle.

Eagle Fittings and Ebony Sheath

• Pure Copper Eagle Fittings: The sword is adorned with magnificent pure copper fittings that feature a majestic eagle motif. In many cultures, including Chinese, the eagle is a powerful symbol of freedom, strength, keen vision, and a commanding presence.

• Premium Ebony Wood: The sword is securely housed in a premium ebony wood scabbard, known for its dense, dark, and beautiful grain. The handle is also crafted from ebony wood, providing a comfortable and secure grip that perfectly complements the sword's design.
