It features a large 27.2 in blade on an 31.5 in staff, hand-painted and sculpted into a long, single-edged spearhead. Sculpted brass details add character where the spearhead meets the red suede leather-wrapped pole, and a ring or fabric scrap threaded through the hole in the blade can help set yours apart from the crowd.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's built from durable closed cell foam around a fiberglass core and finished with a strong latex coating, giving your Guandao LARP weapon both safety and appeal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHistory\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpears rank among humanity's oldest weapons, used for hunting for at least 400,000 years and standing as the dominant weapon of the Stone Age right up until firearms took over. In Chinese, this weapon's proper name is yanyuedao — \"guandao\" is simply the popular term. Modern martial artists still use rings fixed through the back edge of the blade to judge the quality of a strike or thrust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisclaimer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Our LARP products are for recreational use only.
