Hello Jose,
The blade length is one of the things I find interesting about this. I only have two in my collection with a total length of 30 inches or over. What seems very odd to me is the offset hilt with such a small guard and this length of blade. I would have thought that this would have had a D-guard or some other form of extended guard instead of the simple cross guard that it has. I tried cleaning up one of the pictures and to me it looks like I can possible see where the tang could be through the hilt. Or it might just be my eye playing a trick on me.
