Crafted from solid 1045 carbon steel, the Fire and Steel – Six-Ring Dao is a striking decorative piece built with a full-metal, full-tang construction that gives it exceptional weight, presence, and durability. This semi-sharp dao features a tapered edge that provides the look and feel of a functional blade, while still remaining display-friendly—though the material allows it to be sharpened further if desired. Measuring 98cm in total length, it showcases three rings along the spine of the blade and three more integrated into the metal handle, creating the iconic jangling effect traditionally associated with ringed Chinese swords. Designed for enthusiasts, collectors, and cosplay displays, this steel dao delivers an unmistakable martial aesthetic and a commanding visual impact.

About Dao

The dao is one of the most iconic traditional Chinese weapons, widely known as the “single-edged saber” and favored by soldiers and martial artists for centuries. Developed as early as the Han dynasty, the dao became the primary battlefield sword due to its durability, versatility, and powerful cutting ability. Its curved, single-edged blade made it especially effective for swift slashing strikes, whether used on foot or by mounted warriors.

Over time, many variations emerged—such as the ring-pommel dao—each designed to enhance handling, balance, or striking force. Beyond its practical role in combat, the dao holds significant cultural value and remains an important weapon in traditional Chinese martial arts, still practiced and celebrated for its fluid, forceful movements and historical legacy.
