Agreed! I have one of what I gather is somewhat above average length with a different style of grip. and a slightly more pronounced forward slant. I bought it on a whim as it was pretty cheap, and it was one of the most pleasant surprises I've had. I love how it handles, and it is also my only blade so far with pamor (which I really like). I really like that forward slant and the way it brings the point in alignment with the outstretched arm, while simultaneously giving it a very choppy feel. It looks very organic, not just the pamor but also the overal shape of the blade. One of my favorite short swords to handle.

This might be sacrilege but as I said on the other thread I think it would work well as an elven sword in a fantasy movie. As an orc sword I might suggest the Ngombe ngulu.
