Pros: Overall Quality
Cons: Sheath/Scabbard, Usable
Very nice piece!
Actual measurements for the blade are 29⅛". The description states "false edged blade", but mine has a nice utility edge on it that I don't consider ultra-sharp, but it's not false and I like it that way. The metal handle has a good leather grip and a brass plated vine of sorts on it. You know when you're holding this thing in your hand, as it has a good weight to it. Unlike some other pieces made by United that I've held, this one had a feel of some good quality craftsmanship. I like it. The only con is that there is no scabbard or sheath for it and it's a little expensive unless your a LOTR junkie.
