36" Medieval Knight Arming Sword with Scabbard – Unsharpened Stainless Steel for Cosplay & Display

I’m not a sword expert at all but I needed something that would look nice and be a good prop for some content creation. This one fits the bill nicely. It looks quite nice and the blade is not super thick so it isn’t sturdy like a rock but it is not flimsy or flop around either. May be a tad shorter than one may expect but not much and that helps stabilize the blade as well. For the money it’s very cool.

I've written several product reviews on Amazon, but this is the first one where I'm stoked enough to opine immediately after receiving a purchase. I was looking for a sword to go with a Knight costume for Halloween that wasn't just a $2 plastic kid's toy. I figure if I'm going to the effort I'm at least going to look like I tried. I didn't want to spend big money, but a steel sword with a scabbard that didn't look like it came from Wally World should be doable. Well it is doable, and this sword is it. I don't know much sword terminology, so don't have a heart attack when I say the "grip" seems well made, and the sideways "bars" between the grip and the edged blade are solidly attached. All the steel is brushed and blemish-free. The ring at the end of the grip is thick metal and still a perfect circle after shipping. The blade is covered in a thin film of oil and is straight as an arrow. The scabbard is leather or fake leather and looks great with the Knight costume. I had a leather belt and sword frog from last year's pirate costume (both bought on Amazon), and this sword matches both perfectly. If you're looking for a costume sword that's a serious level up from plastic junk and still not expensive, look no further. This is one of my best scores for Halloween costume swag yet. Edited to add: Looks like the Amazon review screeners liked what I had to say. When I wrote the review yesterday the sword was still $41 (what I paid for it) on Amazon Prime. This morning it's $61 on Amazon Prime. Sorry about about that, folks! LOL (the sword is still worth it if you're serious about your Halloween getup)

I thought this was a pretty good sword for the price, but there are just a couple of things that might turn away a buyer. Pros: - It is carbon steel indeed. Because of this, the blade can be used as a semi-functional weapon, but I'll get into that later. - It disassembles like a dream. If you want to practice sword care, this is the sword to buy. It shows you how all of the different parts fit together the same way you will find in higher quality weapons. - It is very nice to look at. Great decoration or dress sword - Isn't too cumbersome to wield and swing around. The fittings are super tight and can always be adjusted by tightening the pommel nut. Cons: - The sword does have a full tang, I'll give it that; however, not only is it a rat tail tang, but the blade is still welded to the rat tail pretty sloppily. Any heavy use of the sword may cause it to snap, but so far it is surprisingly sturdy. - It is not sharp at all. I did not find this much of a problem because I can put a descent edge on anything, but for any new buyers who cannot, I would not expect to use this as a functional weapon. - The handle leather and the scabbard leather are completely different. It is more of an aesthetic thing, but it is worth mentioning. - It has no distal taper, but the sword is so small, it is almost not noticeable. As a final evaluation, it is a perfect beginner sword. Disassembles easily and accurately, doesn't come with and edge, and feels like a sword. If you have a new interest in HEMA or WMA or your relative does, this would be absolutely perfect. It does, however, under perform compared to its cheap oriental weapon counterparts on Amazon.

It looks way better irl than the pictures. It's a great weight and durability. Blade is dull but what's stopping ypu from buying a blade sharpener? If ur looking for a midevil sword for your man, THIS IS THE SWORD! Trust me, he will love it!!

Very pleased with this sword. It looks amazing and elegant. Blade is 440 stainless and has a good amount of flex. Rattles a bit when trying to find the center of percussion. Not really sharp but I still wouldn't swing it at anything that I like. Can unscrew the pommel and take it apart. VERY well balanced and its a pleasure to swing. Balances about 1.5" from the guard. Scabbard is really nice as well. Doesn't look cheap and looks like quality materials. Overall, id get another just because I like looking at it.

Well balanced, feels sturdy in grip, moves with flow as if it anticipates your intentions and agrees with you. Not a sword I'd expect to hold up in a battle, but for ceremonial or decorative purposes it's well above the asking price. Good quality, even if the price was double. Blade came sharper than expected. I might try it out on a watermelon or some water jugs. I made choji oil a while back, so I might use some of that for long term storage. I think. If there's more of these in stock after I finish rounding out my other weapon wants (naganata, spear, cutlass, etc), I might swing by and buy another one of these, as this first one is satisfyingly good.
