Arabian Shamshir Warrior Sword & Sheath

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 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!

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.
