			This is the best Dao I have seen. And when I say best, I mean type, decoration, condition, etc.  Most daos on the market today are fake or very simple and in poor condition. |

			Nice saber, and thank you for sharing the photos. Can I ask how long the blade is and if it feels hefty in hand? Maybe you even have the weight of the saber alone.
