This was ended early on EBay because of a mistake.

Two things caught my attention: the stiching on the scabbard look real, and the stamp is well made. The blade appears to be blued, and the grips... walrus???? The filigree work by the hilt appears to be too "cheap" though. But would a good buy for US $0.01 anyway:-)
