There are more pictures than listed. The sword is extremely detailed. The blades are dull on the sides but the sword is sharp at the tip. I really believe the condition to be near excellent but it needs to be properly cleaned. I do not want to mess it up so I will wait to see if we can have it cleaned professionally. There is rust on the top part of the blade and some green buildup on certain parts. The person that he got it from years ago said that he had it for twenty years. I do not think the original guy bought it new either. I think it may have been an heirloom of some sort. If it is authentic, it may have been ceremonial or something. It has very good weight to it, especially where the handle is. It also has the sheath, which is also very detailed.
