Miaodao Curved Greatsword

Equipped with high manganese steel blade, which is a modern, highly refined iron base-steel alloyed with on average 11% manganese, 0.6% carbon, and significant amounts of chromium, silicon and vanadium. 

It’s a high carbon steel, well known for its almost perfect balance of good blade strength, hardness, toughness, edge-holding capacity, as well as renowned blade elasticity and excellent resilience, with very similar characteristics to a 1060 carbon steel sword blade. High Manganese steel is without a doubt, one of the most versatile steels available, and arguably the best blade-making steel for a combat sword.

Completed with a beautiful scabbard, quality sword-fittings, and a matching rosewood handle, forming a traditional, low-maintenance and effective hand-grip. 

Collectable, a pleasure to own, and a lethal, very big sword, designed for open-field battle. Both battle functional (sharp edge); and training sword (dulled blade) options are available.

Key Features:

• Spring steel blade – hard, reliable battle edge, along with renowned natural blade elasticity & excellent resilience. 
• Generous two handed sword handle – facilitates unhindered weapon manoeuvring and massive power. 
• Single edged sword blade – primary cutting edge, with full structural strength blade spine.
• Functional & versatile – equally effective cutting, slashing and thrusting great sword.
• Both battle ready sword (sharp edge); and sparring sword (blunt sword blade) options available.
