To Alanus and fellow Sarmatians,
The sword arrived today and as Alanus predicted it's :oops:
The trimming are cheap alloy, they engraved the blade, it's a single hand and the pommel looks crappy to.
I'm going to sand the blade to remove the engravings, weld on a longer tang and make a new, longer grip to make it a two-handed.
Make a new pommel, and electroplate the trimmings with bronze (never tried that on zinc alloy).
You already guessed it, I don't recommend to buy these things :!:
