I'm pretty sure that it's similar to Yang's semblance - damage absorbtion and redirection. Like Yang, he has to absorb impacts (which he does through his sword, which may have dust with shielding properties in its alloy). He then releases it all through the cutting edge of his sword in one blow.

It's enough to disintegrate a heavily armoured war robot or penetrate a Huntress's aura and protective semblance.
