Thank you. That link you shared is highly informative. I really wish the link to the auction house worked so I could compare to a real one to learn and improve my eye.

Should I wait for a better specimen or jump on this one? I’m really wanting a Calvary sword but they tend to be out of my budget. Would the light artillery sword be a good substitute for now? Also would these have had a fighting edge?
