The Ox-Tail Dao is undoubtedly one of the best weapon-grade swords of its type commercially available. Unlike the many decorative and theatrical versions of this sword, the Hanwei sword is a true replica of the originals. With its traditional ox-tail design, distal-tapered blade and hand-tied grip, the dao handles very well. A brass-mounted wooden scabbard is included.
