Thanks Tim,
The bend itself isn't that bad, but it does make it tight in the scabbard. It should still have some "life" in it as there are plenty of other marks. Including three notches on the grip which I personally hope only represent wear and tear (I am one of those squeamish collectors). Jeff |

i am not so sure but ,i think i had heard from somebody that it could be straightened by some manner of heating and cooling back after getting reshaped. It is possible even to repair broken swords that way, and possible to apply makeup to it to erase the tracks of the repair and obtain a homogenous looking. I will ask that guy tomorrow or the day after once more for more detail.
