A very good example of a large 19th Century Imperial Chinese Military Dadao Broadsword. These swords were carried by ordinary Chinese infantrymen during the 19th Century and well into the 20th Century.
Sword scabbard with fishskin and iron mounts
The sword has iron hilt and scabbard mounts, covered in black painted fishskin. The grip is bound with the original black cotton binding. The heavy blade would have been devastating in the field of combat. Condition of the blade is excellent. Blade length is 27 inches (34 inches overall).
