Poor purchase and very over priced!

There are some outstanding manufactures of swords in America, but you need to look around.

Please contact your local Renaissance Fair members for advise on quality weapons.

Your heart is in the right place, but that specific sword is horribly over priced for it's quality.

If you want sturdiness, go with a Starfire. That's what we use in stage combat when we can - but they come blunt, so you'd need to sharpen if you want to use for actual defense.

Museum Replicas is our other weapon source.

That is very pretty, but unless it's merely for display, a sword that size and model should weigh far more than three pounds, if it's well-made.

If all you ever want to do is hang it on the wall, go for it.
