Realistic Sparring Weapons - Products

The Realistic Sparring Weapons version of Chinese Dao is modeled after a modern replica for martial arts usage. Compare to the antiques, it has a greater curvature and a broader blade. It's a light weight, forwarded balance cutter that excels in close quarter. Added with a shield and one will be fine in both offensive and defensive ability. The reversed curvature grip aligns the tip with the arm, thus allowing the user to thrust accurately. The non-symmetrical grip tells the user which is the edge and which is the spine right away.
