Is this sword for real ? And is the long end of it sharp or not ?

The sword is long and not too sharp. It's also 5 feet 9 inches and all black just like the show. It's awesome

United Cutlery....The Black Series. Affordable, and battle ready. These swords come with an edge, however a half hour with a fine grade stone and you'll get razor sharp. http://www.budk.com/product/United-Cutlery-Black-Shikyo-Forged-Katana-1045-Carbon-Sword/159709.uts

What do you mean 'Real'? Is it steal? Yes... Is it sharp? Yes...but I sharpened it more. You can NOT...use this as a fighting sword really. It's far too long. To use this in a normal manner, you would need to be between 7-8' feet tall.

Sword is for real. Mine came actually pretty sharp. The sheath came cracked which sucked but its ok. Not to noticeable. And it comes with alot of gel like substance on the blade, i think its to keep from rusting or something. I cant remember, but overall. Very well made considering the price.

It is a prop sword. It isn't very sharp at all. It is definitely not considered a weapon as it is meant for display purposes only

Well I use it more for display, but it is pretty heavy and sturdy and sharp at the end. My guess would be if you are very careful it wouldn't break. I saw a video of someone using the sword to chop a wooden beam in half, but then again it is a cosplaying sword

It all depends on what your wanting it for. If your just using it as a accessory for a cosplay costume or to have it on display its more than adequate. If your wanting a real sword with a honed blade, than no its not.

Yes, and it's a sturdy one, stiff and not floppy like some others I've come across. The sword itself is magnificent!

Very much so. The swords are extremely sharp, though. So much so that the tips can easily puncture the sheath, if you take the little plastic pieces off.

Yes. It says sharp much longer than a typical metal blade. About 10x longer from my experience.

No, its a very well put together sword and worth the money, i bought it for my boyfriemd and he loves it!

The blade is not sharp, except for the tip. If anything, the look of the sword would be intimidating enough. That being said, it's still heavy and blunt, so hitting an invader with it could do something. However, it IS a beautiful work of art and shouldn't be used in that way.

Yes it is. Hope it helps. Just make sure you are getting what.you are paying for. Swords from Asia can be tricky. Tell you one thing then ship you another, so be careful

It appears to be. There are no grinding marks and it is quite sharp. I touched up the edge so it was extremely sharp but it took very little to get that way. Fittings are solid brass and tight, a very good sword for the money.

No but the point can do some real damage, its a very nice sword. Remember it is scaled hobbit size

It is not like the machete. It is sturdy in the middle as an owner of this sword I would highly recommend it.

The blade is real steel. I was impressed for the money. The edge is not sharpened and can not cut, at least on mine. It could be sharpened. The point is sharp however and could use dulling if you are giving this to an older kid. mine was a gift

The tip is pointy, but it is made of the lowest quality steel that a functional sword can be. So yes it can cut things and is somewhat sharp.

Hate to be the grammar nazi here, but just so other sword fanatics don't yell at you for it, it's a fuller, not a blood groove/line. And yes, it does have a nice wide shallow fuller near the spine of the blade.

Yes it is a real 404 stainless steel blade... It is not sharp but can hold an edge if sharpened. The handle is made of plastic. The top cap of the handle is made of aluminum. The face of the sword is also made of aluminum. And the... "wings" on each side are made of plastic. It's not something you'd want to swing around. It's meant for decoration.
