honestly i have no idea about swords so i couldn't help you.
thats what i got a glock 21 .45 cal. with a 400 dollar internal lazer.... but you wont get as much fun slicing people in half. And yes those swords made a few hundred of years ago cost a fortune because it was made with perfectness. You can know when you have a REAL sword by the weight, the real ones are as heavy as the braveheart sword (which i have) and looks light (like the picture in the beginning of this thread) To be able to manuver the real sword, will be a perfect workout for the uper muscles of the body
