Made on demand by Viktor Berbekuzk, Hungary.
Length : 117 cm
Weight : 2200 grammes

It is heavy, I would maybe agree to that weight if it was for reenacting, but for real fencing, a bit heavy... Is it sharp?

Yes, you're right, this sword is more inspired from the original than a replica.
As it is for reenacment, the purpose was not to respect original proportions.
And there is a lot of details not reproduced.
Take it please just for what it is, a nice inspired blade ;)

No, it is not sharp.
But as i said, i use the "Monza" like one for "real" fencing and enjoy the weight.

I like the looks of this sword. It's familiar in the historical sense, yet different enough to appeal to my two-handed taste. The added grip, cross, and blade lengths are what makes it a bit heavier, so I'd still happily give the sucker a swing... :D

Hmmm, 2.200kg on a 117cm swords sounds very heavy. Knowing the great work of viktor I can guess the blade is over-thick with a super-safe edge of 3mm wide. His sharp swords have realistic weights.
Since I had visited Viktor's shop in person I could swing all the inventory there, and also to check an exact replica along the original, comissioned by a large museum - minding the loss of mass due to age & ware they were almost exact twins by all means.

In my opinion, just under 5 lbs is too heavy even for a reenactment sword. I have a Gus Trim blunt, the SB-1450, which has a similar size to this sword. It weighs 3 lbs, is durable, and handles like a dream. True - it is not a treat for your eyes. Tinker Pearce also makes blunts that handle like a real sword.
