These are indeed wonderful fighting swords, I had a few myself and others here also own a number of variations.

Your sword show high quality aspects in the hilt and blade and nice to see the scabbard and suspension with it.

Mat cutting would be fun but these things would take the leg clean off a charging horse in reality!

I can however tell you, the blade in yours is of a type associated with these swords. Yours is now the third such blade seen in this type of hilt.

This one was my favorite by far, now with a friend locally.

I had a dealer email me to say he'd got a nice 'pulover' to show me!!
I think I asked if he had any cardigans?

AJ, it's a nice one mate. Congrats.

Nice sword. One thing to always check with a handle like this with this type of ribbing is whether or not the grip is wootz. Some of these will etch out with a nice wootz pattern which would take it up a notch in the nicety category.
