Product Description
This classic sword design originated in Persia, but was also used in India during the 13th and 14th centuries. The long curved blade was ideal for inflicting sweeping strokes or piercing gashes, and could be wielded equally well while mounted or on foot.
I bought this sword, I think the exact one from the same actual producers and it was just a dud. I have normal hands and the wood hand grip is HUGE. Was hard to even hold the thing. The yellow metal (whatever it was) was cheap and clangy. The sword felt as if it would fall apart at any second. It was Pakistani no skill cheapy decoration quality. Now it LOOKED awful purty...and it got hung up...but don't go into battle with this one.

Great Sword
Great sword for the price. I have friends that have seen it. Pictures cannot do it justice. I love it and I expect some of my friends to get theirs!

No regrets
I bought mine a few years back (2002 I think) when it was offered for $35. You most likely won't regret paying what they're asking now. It is a very good quality sword for the price. I've done some light sparring with it and outside of a few nicks it's held up fine. The scabbard leaves something to be desired, but on the rare occasion I carry this piece I use my back hanger for it anyway. (Rare only because it's too fantasy for my reenactment troop). Over the last year or so the handle has picked up a slight crack along the wood grain, but not bad for a 10 year old sword that was never designed for actual combat!

Shamshir Warrior's Sword
Actually, shamshir is supposedly Persian for "Lion's tail", referring to the curved blade as opposed to the straight bladed broadswords used in the west. Unlike true shamshirs, which were light and fast, this beast is massive, an unlikely blend of the weight and heft of a broadsword with the shape and sweep of a shamshir that somehow works and works well! This is a close to an executioner's scimitar as it gets!

Very nice
Well, when i got the sword in the mail like 2 months ago, it was pretty sweet to say the least. The handle like as the site tells you is wooden; easily a foot long. For those who don't know about this sword and cant read the size, it is huge. In any case if you buy it you wont regret it at least I didn't.

Nice Sword
This sword was very nice. It had good heft, and very nice quality. But I would not call the scabbard high quality. It appears to be made of some composite material (maybe leather) but definatly not quality. That is why the 4 stars. I gave it as a gift to a friend.

Good solid sword. Blade is nice and handle is pretty solid. It's a heavy sword and takes some getting used to but very nice.

It's alright. The materials that go into it are pretty standard stuff, nothing like the musashi swords they sell here. The edge is sharpened and the pakistan stamp is there for the world to see. However, it is pleasantly heavy in the hand, I must admit. As a prop or even a costume piece, I'd use it. But this isn't the kind of sword that you wanna put in a collection, or have the intent of actually using. Still though, considering that it isn't full-tang, it holds together fairly well, and the sheath is sturdy enough.

This sword is somewhat disappointing. The only good thing about it is how large it is. The blade has a wavy and uneven appearance. The guard and pommel came with slight chips and some corrosion. The guard is out of alignment by about a quarter of an inch and the blade wobbles slighty I assume because of this. One good point would be the sheath as the sword fits perfectly into place, although the second time I unclipped the snap to take the sword out it broke. From an appearance point of veiw i would not call it a display item and considering its numerous flaws it is no where near functional. I would only recomend this item to someone that wants a very large Scimitar and is not too concerned with its overall look.

I can't believe I paid 50 dollars for this.
Unless you plan to only put this on the wall do NOT buy it. A sword this poor in quality isn't worth the money but I will admit that it looks very nice on the wall.
