I appreciate your concern. Thank you.
The self-defense issue is a side benefit, not the main reason for the sword. I'm buying the sword as for the same reasons one might buy a painting or other works of art. I happen to greatly appreciate ancient weaponry and I like Virgil's work. I have a few older pieces; a wavy bladed Indian sword made out of a greenish steel is my most prized one.
That said, I want a sword, not a knock-off or a sculpture that happens to look like a sword. Thus, it will be sharp, and a weapon. I would like to be able to use that weapon with proficency. Which leads me to the question I asked above.
