Miaodao Saber | 苗刀：传统技法 中华武风

The miaodao saber, also known as “long saber“ in ancient times, gets its name from the slender shape of a seedling. It is a precious cultural legacy of China. Miaodao can be used both as a blade and a spear, with one or both hands. In actual combat, the weapon is mainly aimed at opponent’s upper body, like the head, shoulders, arms or chest. It has been recognized as an intangible cultural heritage of China. Originating in the Han Dynasty (202BC-220AD) and having reached its peak in the Tang Dynasty (618-907), miaodao has a history of more than a thousand years. The weapon’s shape determines the fighting technique. The back of the thick blade is used to fend off the enemy’s weapon. The tip is straight, and good for stabbing. #ChinaKungfu Subscribe to us on YouTube: Download our APP on Apple Store (iOS): Download our APP on Google Play (Android):
