Very nice!
I wonder what the smith did to make the pattern come out in that configuration. It looks almost like the inside of a banana peel.
The forging lines converge at the point which gives the impression of concentrated power.
Now; about that scabbard...
There is a photo of some young men sparring in Cato's book and they're using the scabbards to parry with.
