I like henri. As I understand it, most of these are recent. The old ones from the Headhunting times(pre-1887) are very rare indeed. Some concider the old ones the only "real" swords, all other are tourist. Do a forum search and see what I mean, not a pretty picture in some cases. Mine is my Wife's favorite sword in my collection, whether its old or not, its pretty. Its all in the eye of the beholder.
