Medieval Knight Arming Sword with Scabbard

It looks way better irl than the pictures. It's a great weight and durability. Blade is dull but what's stopping ypu from buying a blade sharpener? If ur looking for a midevil sword for your man, THIS IS THE SWORD! Trust me, he will love it!!

I've written several product reviews on Amazon, but this is the first one where I'm stoked enough to opine immediately after receiving a purchase. I was looking for a sword to go with a Knight costume for Halloween that wasn't just a $2 plastic kid's toy. I figure if I'm going to the effort I'm at least going to look like I tried. I didn't want to spend big money, but a steel sword with a scabbard that didn't look like it came from Wally World should be doable. Well it is doable, and this sword is it. I don't know much sword terminology, so don't have a heart attack when I say the "grip" seems well made, and the sideways "bars" between the grip and the edged blade are solidly attached. All the steel is brushed and blemish-free. The ring at the end of the grip is thick metal and still a perfect circle after shipping. The blade is covered in a thin film of oil and is straight as an arrow. The scabbard is leather or fake leather and looks great with the Knight costume. I had a leather belt and sword frog from last year's pirate costume (both bought on Amazon), and this sword matches both perfectly. If you're looking for a costume sword that's a serious level up from plastic junk and still not expensive, look no further. This is one of my best scores for Halloween costume swag yet.Edited to add: Looks like the Amazon review screeners liked what I had to say. When I wrote the review yesterday the sword was still $41 (what I paid for it) on Amazon Prime. This morning it's $61 on Amazon Prime. Sorry about about that, folks! LOL (the sword is still worth it if you're serious about your Halloween getup)

I thought this was a pretty good sword for the price, but there are just a couple of things that might turn away a buyer.Pros:- It is carbon steel indeed. Because of this, the blade can be used as a semi-functional weapon, but I'll get into that later.- It disassembles like a dream. If you want to practice sword care, this is the sword to buy. It shows you how all of the different parts fit together the same way you will find in higher quality weapons.- It is very nice to look at. Great decoration or dress sword- Isn't too cumbersome to wield and swing around. The fittings are super tight and can always be adjusted by tightening the pommel nut.Cons:- The sword does have a full tang, I'll give it that; however, not only is it a rat tail tang, but the blade is still welded to the rat tail pretty sloppily. Any heavy use of the sword may cause it to snap, but so far it is surprisingly sturdy.- It is not sharp at all. I did not find this much of a problem because I can put a descent edge on anything, but for any new buyers who cannot, I would not expect to use this as a functional weapon.- The handle leather and the scabbard leather are completely different. It is more of an aesthetic thing, but it is worth mentioning.- It has no distal taper, but the sword is so small, it is almost not noticeable.As a final evaluation, it is a perfect beginner sword. Disassembles easily and accurately, doesn't come with and edge, and feels like a sword. If you have a new interest in HEMA or WMA or your relative does, this would be absolutely perfect. It does, however, under perform compared to its cheap oriental weapon counterparts on Amazon.

Super happy with the quality and the look of the sword I don’t know if it’s quite usable the chop up things but that’s a great costume and decoration after Halloween

I love using weapons as display pieces in my home. I was hoping that for 50 dollars I could get a full-sized sword and this did not disappoint! It's even got a decent weight. Quite obviously a display sword.
