31" Scimitar Sword – Stainless Steel Blade with Wood Handle, Metal Guard and Pommel, Includes Leather Sheath – Curved Arabian Sword for Display, Cosplay, and Collectors

Ok. This product because of the low cost left me with very little in terms of expectations, but was blown away. The product is well made, although not sharp, but was more than worth the money that was spent.

wanted a scimitar but not a huge one. its perfect for my pirate costume

Very nice and well made. Four well deserved stars; was tempted to give Five stars, but I give Five stars only for perfection in craftsmanship. The larger version of this sword was very well made and well finished Five starrer; this one not so. They did not finish the all wood handle grip well. It is still squarish; nothing that a few hours of lovin' sanding can not shape into how you like it. Actually I like it that I can shape the wood grip to my liking. The handle is not the same proportion as shown in the picture - it is much shorter. but still good length for a good grip. Is not sharp - has about a 1mm wide edge. So will need grinding and then whetting to sharpen. The sheath is good but needs snap on buttons to hold the sword in place. Soon as they weaken you will have to replace them or the sword will drop out and cut your heel. I guess they had a choice between loose button less sheath or this snug fit but buttoned version. I do like it snug but will make sure I think up some secondary form of securing the sword in case the buttons pop. A great buy for the price. I would recommend it. A must buy for collectors who are handy with tools.

Sword arrived exactly as described. Blade is fairly clean with no blemishes. Using for purely aesthetic purposes and it will work beautifully. Not for sparring or actual use other than a prop or decoration.

Solid display piece. And they ship it without the false edge of so many wall hangers so if you are of a mind to sharpen it you have a nice blank slate to work with.

Ver y poor quality.

Bought this to give as a gift to be a bad @$$ wedding cake cutter, and the future bride and groom LOVED it! Perfect!!

For the second time I purchased a scimitar that showed it was a right handed sword in the photo and i received a left handed sword. The first time was NOT from Szco, but from some other supplier on EBay. As you can see in the photo, the sword would hand on your left hip, as a right handed sword should. The one I received in the mail would have met my expectations just fine if had not been a left handed model. Beware before you order a scimitar tye sword from anywhere...you might want call the seller beforehand and make certain it is indeed a right handed sword. I have ordered other items from Szco in the past, and have always been happy with my purchases, so I was rather surprised that this item was so blantantly misrepresented.

I’ve bought dozens of swords.(true,but shameful). I admit I am no expert.Maybe this is a conceit but I believe I can tell when I’ve got my moneys worth.So that’s where I’m coming from. The following is only my opinion.You can take it from there,believe what you want to believe. It’s stainless steel. It’s not sharpened.I don’t like scimitars. I bought it because it was cheap and looked wicked.In a moment of madness,I guess you could say.These are the facts. The rest,as you were forewarned,are not. The scabbard alone is worth the purchase price.If the blade were carbon steel and sharpened,(it is full tang,that’s another fact)this would be a $300 sword.Minimum.When I took it from the box,I could not remember buying it(not unusual,I’m afraid). It’s much larger than I expected and much more expensive looking than I would pay for a scimitar,a style I don’t even like.I thought there must have been a mistake and when I reviewed my orders,was dumbfounded at the price.Stainless steel can be sharpened although it won’t retain an edge as long as carbon. It’s probably what you’ve been carving your roasts with.And with a full tang,you can confidently whack away at things:shrubbery,roasts,neighbors,what have you.Or you can hang it on the wall. It’s pretty beautiful in an unassuming way.That’s just my opinion,though,too.

This sword is a good size and have a good weight to it. The handle is solid wood, the curve ofthe blade look good, and the guard is good size too. The sheath is hardened leather, the sheath has three straps with metal buttons to secure the sword.

Good for display. But its rather light compared to what you would think. Its not at all sharp, though it has a point. Mine was sturdy in its hilt, however there was a chip near the end of the sword. The hilt is a plastic that looks and feels like a varnished wood (there were small chips in the "wood" handle as well). The metal cross guard, and pommel look good. The sheath is a fake leather, and is awkward to draw the sword from or place back in, there are three buttons that hold the sword in, on mine the hilt was too thick for the top button to latch. But hey its more for a wall piece anyways. It looks good for the price, you get what you pay for.

Beautiful decorative sword, the blade feels fairly secure...though I would not hot anything with it before first taping the blade into the handle in case it would break....I only got it for decoration, very impressed!

I'll start with the bad, the fit and finish of the handle looks like it was done by 7th graders, as well the handle profile is quite thick. The blade is thin and I think they could have done better then a nylon sheath. That said, it was easy to disassemble, I sanded down the handle profile and filed in a better fit for both the hilt & guard before giving it a lite protective coating. Note: Not a lot of sparks were produced when sharpening, so the carbon content of the steel is low. With about an hour of elbow grease, it now looks decent as an unsheathed display piece for under $50. Would I recommend it....probably not, I would spend more and get a nicer quality piece, but if $$ is tight and your decently handy, then it can be a fun little project sword.
