Conversation piece
I have owned this Marto sword for almost 30 years! It's held up well (not that I have been using it for sword-fighting or the like). I employed it in my wedding ceremony to add a touch of masculinity to the proceedings, and it now hangs on our wall where it draws compliments as a conversation piece. My only complaint is that for my sword the pommel is only (inadequately) glued in, so when I hold it blade-up the weighty pommel invariably falls off, somewhat reducing the impact of one's dramatic posture. But I am still glad I bought it all those years ago.
