its size ,possibly its weight and the ornementation are all wrong.Sorry to be sounding very negative  but  Id let the buyer beaware (cveat emptor )

 Yata is absolutely right, this blade is absolutely crap.
I was thinking that the rules are we can't talk about something for sale...
I suspect that no dealer on the forum will buy this sword so the rules can be transpassed...
