This isn't meant to be a complaint, but an informative review. Overall, this is a great sword, and a great deal. The box that comes with it costs almost as much as the normal price of this sword, so that's a hell of an extra. I purchased the version with the red scabbard, and it's a beautiful sword. Everything, for the most part is as advertised. After some testing, however, I discovered that the blade had not been properly tempered, and is in no way "Battle Ready". I could literally bend it in my bare hands and it would take a set. So, if you decide to purchase this sword, use it for LIGHT TARGETS or display only. Over all, it IS still a good deal however, and I'm happy with my purchase.

just got my sword in today it is a sweet sword i really like the wood box it came in the sword felt good in the hands thank you budk
