These are rather nice. The one with the metal pommel I assume is a copper/tin/zinc alloy rather than aluminium? I think the blades look great and I might say; are they really a copy of European forms? I post pictures of mine. Like yours it too has rough/crude look but there is nothing crude about the flexible nature to the slashing ability of the blade. It has been suggested to me that it is in fact a re-worked European blade but as you can see from the pictures, I strongly believe that it is not. I am very lucky to have a club to go with these swords. I was horrified by the price I paid for it, but now I am thinking I did jolly well
