Ox Tail Dao Sword

The Ox-Tail Dao, often referred to as the Kung Fu Saber, is one of the most iconic Chinese weapons used in traditional martial arts. This broad, single-edged saber is favored in Shaolin Kung Fu, Wushu, and other Chinese martial disciplines, known for its swift, fluid movements and powerful cutting ability. Unlike straight swords, the dao’s curved blade enhances slashing motions, making it ideal for both training and combat applications. Practitioners of forms-based practice, as well as those focused on practical swordsmanship, value this weapon for its historical significance and dynamic combat effectiveness.
