I definitely have no experise in spotting fakes but I noticed something strange.
It took a lot of skill and experise for a Middle Age swordsmith to make such a sword. It was by no means a small feat to forge a sword blade.
So how comes that a skilled swordsmith that can forge a sword blade and give it a perfect shape, cannot forge a reasonably round pommel?!
Also maybe just an impression... but isn't the tang a bit short in relation to the sizes of the sword, crossguard and pommel?!
