Chinese Dao Thread
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			
			I posted these some time ago and wanted to link to the recent thread on Chinese Dao, but could not find my original thread(s). So I will post a couple of my dao here. 
 
Starting with a goose quill dao. Note the color of the hilt binding. Yellow was reserved for nobility. Phillip Tom thought this belonged to the equivalent of a Chinese duke.  
 
All this posting on Chinese dao has rekindled my interest in them!
