On the other hand, and not pretending to gratuitously switch the complicometer, is it my eyes or the sword posted is in the "wrong" position, that is, with the knuckle guard on the top, instead of in the bottom. This inversion gives us a different view of the lettering, potentially due for a different interpretation.
I wonder if urbanspaceman could post a clear picture of both sides of the blade, both with the knuckle guard below the grip.
