It's like an old joke: a prospective groom is furious at his matchmaker because the bride-to-be is blind on one eye, has crooked teeth, broken nose, misses one ear, limps and is a hunchback. "Well', says the matchmaker," either you like Picasso or you don't"

I think both are OK. Personally, I rather like the shiny brass on your Binangon. Very nice sword! enjoy it.
