Template:Short description Script error: No such module "about".The piandao (片刀) is a type of Chinese sabre (dao) used during the late Ming dynasty and through the Qing dynasty. A curved[1] dao meant for slashing and draw-cutting, it bore a strong resemblance to the Persian shamshir.[2] A fairly uncommon weapon, it was generally used by skirmishers in conjunction with a shield.
