Features

Dark Moon — The Poetry of Shadow and Restraint
In classical Chinese philosophy and verse, the dark moon (the new moon) represents latent power, contemplation, and unyielding internal strength. Rather than commanding attention through bright ornamentation, this sword embodies the beauty of restraint — rewarding close inspection with subtle craftsmanship and quiet presence.

Ver. 2 Refined Iteration
Version 2 incorporates enhanced detail accuracy, improved blade seating, and a more uniform protective dark surface finish, delivering exceptional collector value and elevated quality over standard entry models.

Tang Dao Proportions and Heritage
Originating as the primary sidearm of Tang dynasty cavalry (618–907 CE), the Tang dao combined agile slicing geometry with robust durability, establishing an influential silhouette that shaped sword traditions across medieval East Asia.

Full Tang Handcrafted Construction
Forged with a continuous tang running through the entire grip, ensuring solid structural integrity, reliable balance, and lifelong collector value.
