Discover the Elegance and Power of the Cloud Dragon Dao 🗡️

High-quality Dao are usually very difficult to find. Most Dao on the market are flimsy Wushu style blades designed to whip in the air and make a loud noise when the tip flaps out like a fan, or are rather plain in appearance. Until now. Introducing the affordable, entry-level Master Smith forged blade of the Cloud Dragon Dao!

With a folded 1095 carbon steel blade and attractive cast and hand-finished fittings over black ebony wood, this Dao is both attractive and eminently functional. Balanced 3.93" from the guard and weighing in at just 1.87 lbs, it offers the speed and responsiveness that any good fighting Dao should have.

The Cloud Dragon Dao is not only practical but also extremely attractive. The Damascus lines are clearly visible in the blade, showcasing its shape and the austere appearance of the black ebony wood handle and scabbard with cast and hand-finished Brass Cloud Dragon-themed fittings.

Historically, this is a replica of a mid to high-end Qing Dynasty Willow Leaf Broadsword. Its name derives from the blade's side profile's resemblance to the leaf of a willow tree. This design is optimized to deliver fast, shearing cuts with both the center of percussion and the tip, and can also deliver fast and deadly thrusts particularly effective on unarmored or lightly armored targets.

The new version by Swordier boasts such a refined level of finish that it puts the original to shame. Don’t let the relatively low price tag fool you; this blade is the real deal, made to a level that only a Master Smith can achieve.

Do not be fooled by cheap and nasty imitations—this sword is the real deal. Almost never seen outside China due to high production costs and uncertain market demand, you now have the rare opportunity to own one. With Swordier, you can order your Cloud Dragon Dao right here at the SBG Sword Store and buy with confidence, knowing you are getting the best of the best.
