Very nice sword with original hilt & scabbard.
Be surprised if it had a twisted core.
Doubt it has a softer steel core. One of those swords that may etch nicely or may very well be mono steel.
Excellent Sulu work from the latter 19thC.

I don't see the potential for twist core here, not even a hint of it, but I do very much like the fullering.........and I have certainly been wrong before.
