This is a sword that myself I would consider restoring (as in professional cleaning) since it is well preserved but covered in murky oxides and residue and I have a feeling that I wouldnt miss that patina, which isnt such a ,,charming" one (in my own acception...). The weapon is awesome and the materials used are good and well preserved.
