This replica sword is the Antiqued Version and overall length of ~ 41 inches. The actual handle is cord wrapped and is 7 inches long; the handle extends ~ 6.5 inches up along the blade above the guard, which is a very unusual design for a sword. The idea was to make a sword so that someone could reach forward and hold the blade above the guard, but a real sword that was meant for fighting would have just had a longer handle. In any case, the design gives a unique and very interesting look. This sword also has runic hieroglyphs carved along its blade; blade made with 440 steel. Blade guard is 7" wide. Weight is 10lbs. The sword comes with the plaque.
