I'm well known for doing that Ariel .
At any rate; back to the sword in question; if indeed the grip length is 10cm then that would seem an acceptable size.
True medieval swords are such rarities these days and the market is filled with fakes; this may explain why this piece went for short money .
If it is genuine then someone got a hell of a deal .
