why don't they tell you the length of the sword ?

Depends on the vendor that amazon deals with, in this case the vendor didn't specify, the length is 39 inches

Not positive on that, I thought raiden's blade was longer this one is one 27", pretty neat blade just a little shorter than I had hoped for

Im not sure on the exact measurements but it looks almost exactly the same at the real Maximus sword. I am sure there are better quality Maximus swords out there but for the price you pay this is pretty nice. If you want it to look more authentic then I would rough up the sheath and strap, or maybe just re-wrap the sheath with real leather and glue it to the existing sheath. If you need the exact measurements then I can try getting that for you before May.

About 3 feet, the "blade" is as dull as it gets. If you want a legit sword I would strongly suggest looking elsewhere. Even as a wall hanger this thing fails.

24.5 inches (or thereabouts--roughly 62 cm). One correction on my review, though. the material used for this sword does not appear to be as tough as that used for the Cold Steel swords. While attacking a wooden post, the Cold Steel swords show no wear, while this one had a shard split off the crossguard.

It has a 17" blade with a 5" handle. The sword and scabbard are very nicely done and I would highly recommend this to anyone. Very nice for the price!!

Air Force has swords? Sorry, but Yes, 20" would likely be lost in this. 20", really? Less than 2 ft is more like a dagger?! You're sure you measured correctly?

The blade was about 4 inches long. The sheath I got was a piece of crap. The knife did not fit it at all. It had a snap that was torn up. I sent mine back. I was so disappointed. The knife looked ok. The sheath did have a belt loop. But the sheath may be a piece of $);?!

The blade is 18 1/4 inches and the whole thing is 26 3/4 inches. Be advised, when I got this, the blade was slightly bent. Very slightly, but definitely there. Also, the sheath, is made of nylon so you have to be very careful when you are putting the blade back in or the tip will pierce the sheath. And you can't put it in the sheath when it is on your back. All in all it's a nice sword, but you wouldn't want to use it for any major use. If you want something better made and more sturdy, I'd suggest this sword: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BJLXBUU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The sheath works a lot better even though it's only a one sided blade, but that shouldn't be any problem. I guess I gave you a little more than how long the sword is. But I hope this helps your decision. :) God Bless!

26.75" from the tip to the base of the "gem". From top of hilt to tip of sword is 36.25". 38.5" from top of hilt to bottom of scabbard/sheath when sheathed.

It is over a yard long, total, including hilt. The hilt is two handed and 8 inches long. The blade is perhaps three feet long and 6-7 inches or more at the widest point. Its a big sword and only half tang and blunted. It woukd do some damage if swung at someone. It is also heavy especially towards the end of the blade. It wacks against stuff pretty bad if worn at the hip and hangs to the ground. Its a beautiful addition to any collection. But if you want to use it as a costume piece, strap it to your back.

Whoever is working for Amazon and wrote that info messed up. The blade Is 7" and the rest is 5". But that really should be the least of your worries. It's such a badass blade. So happy I bought it for my friend. Buy it.

The sword is very cool, and makes a impressive noise when you unsheath it, but it is only like 24 inches long, so keep that in mind. I am not sure about strapping it, it would probably look silly.
