SZCO Supplies 35" Masonic Knights Templar Replica Ceremonial Sword with Adorned Scabbard for Display, Collectors and Ceremonial Use

Very nice.

More than expected.

Alright, a little thinner in width than I had thought but I didn't read the dimensions, but it's a sword. Also the paint job on the sheath is crappy. But I dig it.

Exactly what I was looking for

Dislikes:As you can see in the photo, there is a random hole drilled into the visible side of the scabbard. All screws are on the visible side and they are sharp!!!Not only are the screws visible, they are off center and the careless construction damaged the scabbard.The last photos show some hard material coming out from under the “antique gold” pieces. This makes me wonder what is holding everything together and question how long it will take for this particular sword to embarrass me by falling apart while in use.The sword itself is roughly what I anticipated except the blade was covered in a black waxy substance. It wasn’t something understandable like a light oil, it was more like rubbing compound, maybe?As others have mentioned, the rings are not well aligned and need to be “fixed.”On top of all that, the sword rattles in the scabbard and it’s loudest at the tip. No other ceremonial sword I have used does this.I cannot imagine using this in a ceremony. It’s noisy, it’s ugly and it will rip your uniform and/or any furniture around you. Classy, right?Likes:It’s very inexpensive and that doesn’t always equate to bad quality but for the sword I received, it had all the hallmarks of what Is decisively bad quality.I’m sorry, I wanted to love it. I was excited about having the blade engraved but it just isn’t going to “cut it.” Maybe at 1/2 this price I would keep it but I can’t help but to look at all the carelessness in construction and ask why it’s SO bad.Would I recommend this to a friend? Absolutely not. There are competitors for slightly more money that I’d try first.Amazon delivered and continues to support us in our purchases. Amazon was great.

Now this is what I am talking about. Righteous steel swords for the Craft! A little delay on arrival, but when this my last of ten came they were all awesome!

Good affordable fist sword for Templar.

The red paint could have been detailed a bit better is the only complaint. One of the nicest littler swords I’ve seen.
