Is this sword real or not... If it is then is it sharp at all?

It is a real stainless steel blade. The blade is not sharpened so it doesn't have a sharp edge. The hilt is plastic and it feels like it is meant to be a decorative sword and not a functional one. Hope that helps!

Yes its real, heavy and stainless steel, but its not sharp and its only to hang in the room, not to destroy things with the sword or u can broke the sword, but its pretty big and heavy :)

The sword has a metal blade made of stainless stain and although it is not sharpened the tip does come to a point similar to a letter opener. Combined with the weight of the blade it's enough to puncture the cardboard box it's delivered in. The handle on the other hand is plastic. Combined with the heavy blade it probably wouldn't hold up to any serious abuse. Overall it's a display item.

The Sword is real stainless Steal, and no it's no sharp but you can sharp it if you want...

Yes it is a real 404 stainless steel blade... It is not sharp but can hold an edge if sharpened. The handle is made of plastic. The top cap of the handle is made of aluminum. The face of the sword is also made of aluminum. And the... "wings" on each side are made of plastic. It's not something you'd want to swing around. It's meant for decoration.

Yes, it's a very real and heavy metal. It's not sharp on the sides of the blade (which is good because you or someone near by would definitely get hurt) but the tip is pointed and sharp enough to penetrate an object given enough force. I bought a few Zelda swords and this is by far the best. It has an incredible weight and feel to it that you'll love. I also found a great sheild that isn't cheaply made if you're looking for that as well!

Absolutely not. While the blade is technically full tang, the edge (as i stated) is not sharp whatsoever, and sharpening it yourself could greatly diminish what is strictly a display peice. Not to mention that the blade is so slender and heavy that it would most likely bend and scratch during real swordplay, not to mention that you would neef some serious arm strength to fight with it, as it is a monster of a longsword.

I like the sword. My sword and sheath fit very tight, but maybe mine has something that fell inside. For the price you pay for the sword it is a good sword. Do not expect to have a real-life fighting capable sword. I bought mine because I wanted to put together a really cool Gladiator Maximus Halloween costume.

The best answer I can give is check for quality of workmanship.the sword I bought from Amazon is the real deal cold steel.here is a cold steel web page you can read to answer your questions. https://www.coldsteel.com/Counterfeits.aspx

Yes it's real. It's a older knife they don't make anymore. They make a similar one. I think that's why it's a little cheaper

Of course it is!!! Sadly, damn near everything is nowadays. It is a very nice blade though, comes very sharp. Used it a handful of times, and have no complaints.

It would be hard and very expensive to test the metal, (sending it to a lab for a carbon assessment), but from what the sword is advertised as, and from personal experience, I would say it is untreated 1045 high carbon steel. I say "high" carbon, but 1045 is still a pretty soft steel. This isn't meant as a beater, but it still looks awesome and cuts well.

It's "factory sharp", I believe. The 'sides' are not sharpened, they're thick and flat. The tip, however, is pointy enough to be sharp. There still really isn't an 'edge' to the sword, but you can hurt someone with the tip, if that's what you were asking. Otherwise, no edge.

No it is half tang. This weapon is definitely a full battle ready blade. If you want something like that expect to drop a pretty penny on a good blade. This sword is heavy and well made enough to do a bit if damage to someone if it came to it, but it is not for reenactments. This is a decoration piece for use for cosplay at the most.

Yes the sword is full tang, as well as comes with a hidden dagger and the back harness. it also has a factory sharpened blade but is not a comeback suitable piece. however it is still a very nice sword to add to your collection

No, despite what others have said, these are absolutely not real swords. The cloth around the handle cannot support much use without unraveling, the steel is stainless (stainless steel cannot be used in swords; stainless steel metal becomes very brittle over 7 inches), and the holes and the saw-like serrated edge are purely for looks. The holes detract from structural integrity, and the serrated edge, if used as an actual sword/machete, will get caught on near everything it comes in contact with. They also cannot be sharpened without a stone and great difficulty. These are purely for show.

Yes, it is made of stainless steel and has sharpen edges. It is basically a real sword, though heavier than a sword would have weighed back in the Middle Ages.

This was not the description when I bought. Mine had a dull blade as it was just a practice sword. This description sounds like it may have a sharp blade. Ours did not have an LED light, that seems a bit cheesy to me. I guess if you want a sword that lights in the dark this would be the sword. I would recommend emailing the seller.We do love our sword though! It still looks like the one we bought and we would absolutely recommend this sword. And for the price you can't go wrong.

Owning this blade i do not believe that it would break in a sword fight but i would be wary of using this blade because its extremely sharp.

It appears to be. There are no grinding marks and it is quite sharp. I touched up the edge so it was extremely sharp but it took very little to get that way. Fittings are solid brass and tight, a very good sword for the money.

It's not to me but because it's really small and people r more impressed on the designs n the fact that ITS BLADE IS MADE OF METAL so no it's not. And really it's really small on the blade, it's hard to notice, so it's a great sword over all for the cost. Hope this helped :)
