should only be used for decoration. I was doing practice swings with it and the handle started cracking right under the hilt guard, this being only the second day I've had it. the blade is really nice looking and sharp, and should the handle have held up it would have been a really great weapon.

Ultimately I'm happy with this as it will likely be used only for display. However, the wood used for the handle - EXTREMELY SOFT! It feels like holding a piece of styrofoam and actually compresses under the pressure of my grip. I am quite certain that the handle would split or snap in two if I swung it at anything remotely solid.
I've replaced wooden handles before but, it an extremely time consuming craft. That said, if i took the time to retrofit with a proper handle, i could probably chop down a tree with it. The weight of the blade is great and the sheath is nice.

Get ready to fix it
Now the blade is pretty sweet, old looking finish along with the wood and wrapping. It's pretty beautiful as a wall hanger as long you don't get any botched spots where the metal is risen, smooth, and silver compared to where the finish is applied correctly. But the handle is week and the tang is short, so it's not functional. I used a strong magnet to find where the tang ended and drilled holes all the way up, using nuts and bolts to pull it all together. Then I wrapped the whole thing tight with Parachord all the way down, not as pretty but I would trust its sturdiness with my life now

awesome blade
this blade is awesome granted the handle is a little bit shoddy but some gorilla tape fixes that. i turned mine into a Chinese war sword but i modified the blade slightly so now it looks like it would be a nightmare to be hit with. all in all awesome blade for the price. i also took it out side and hit a log with a diagonal strike and in cleaved straight through. as for the name of the modified blade its now called the nightmare relm.

Handle could definitely use some reinforcement, especially around the tang (considering it's quite small for such a large blade) my handle began to split after a few swings (never hit anything with it) but some electrical tape fixed that. overall for the price it's not bad at all it is quite sharp and handles nicely.

Forged Warrior Chinese War Sword With Sheath
What an impressive weapon this is. Holding this weapon in my hands feels great. It came very sharp and the construction is very sound.

This is a beautiful piece. My only complaints are that the tang is short and the black finish was done in a crappy way. There were a few large spots where the finish was never even applied. Other than that it is a fine, sharp, piece that I'm happy to have in my collection.
