Jade Dao

The Jade Dao, 85 cm from Epic Armoury, is a beautifully balanced latex-hybrid weapon inspired by the traditional Chinese 'General of Weapons' curved sword. Its single-edged blade is perfectly balanced and highly effective at chopping and slashing, making it a popular choice for cavalry. The slightly curved blade also features a fake edge to improve piercing effectiveness. It is attached to a stunningly detailed polyurethane handle that is painted and shaped to resemble carved jade and gold. The handle also includes a ring-shaped steel-coloured pommel and a counterweight system to provide an excellent feel in hand. While inspired by Asian culture, the Jade Dao also has a high-fantasy appearance, making it suitable for use in alternative settings. Constructed from durable closed-cell foam around a fibreglass core and finished with a strong latex coating, you can trust that this LARP weapon will provide the safety and appeal you desire when building your kit. Available in sizes 100 cm and 85 cm.

Maintenance

This hybrid weapon’s handle does not require any special maintenance, while the blade has a latex coating which needs a certain degree of maintenance. For this we recommend using maintenance silicone, which can be purchased separately in the LARP Accessories section. Epic Armoury Maintenance Silicone is an easy, spray-on application, 100% pure and acid-free making it safe to apply. We recommend using Maintenance Silicone on a regular basis, taking care not to apply the spray to the handle by first wrapping it in plastic-wrap. It maintains the latex-coat’s flexibility and prevents it from drying out, keeping the product wear and tear resistant.

Store your weapon flat or on its pommel--NEVER on its tip. Use a simple sheet or towel lining to prevent it from touching a plastic or rubber surface to prevent your weapon from adhering to other products. Keep your weapon in a cool, dry environment.
