I received the sword in excellent condition, exactly as described. Umar assisted me through the entire process, was quick to respond to questions, and fulfilled my request for the sword to come dull. It is exactly like the picture and a very high quality full tang high carbon steel sword. I ordered this item with the scabbard, the entire package is about 5lbs with the sword itself coming in around 3.5lbs or so. The sword fits well in the scabbard, not too tight or too loose. It is a great piece whether you want it for display or use. For the price I paid with it being on sale at 199.99 I would have a hard time saying you’ll find a better sword for that price let alone one with such a unique design. I highly recommend this seller, and will definitely order from them again!
