Niuweidao Sword

With these two steels, the blade is then hand-forged laminated into three separate sections into a Sanmai structure, with the layout consisting of a hard T10 steel cutting edge, extending through the core to the exposed spine, along with two medium-hardness, folded steel side-jackets.

The purpose of this laminate is to utilize the tough, hard and durably sharp cutting edge capability of T10 steel, while facilitating additional blade resilience and elasticity with medium folded steel jackets. A Sanmai laminate is arguably the most battle-effective structural configuration for real combat, and certainly forms a very lethal foundational core to this Niu Wei Dao saber sword. 

Completed with a hardwood scabbard, solid brass fittings, and a matching hardwood handle, forming a traditional, practical and effective hand-grip.

Prized for collection, and undoubtedly a versatile and formidable Chinese war sword.
