Wonky kris-like blade with a gorgon hilt.. and goofy astrological stuff engraved in it.

I don't know that anyone would be interested here, but: Anyone got any reference to any kind of reality to this type of sword?

I know the Italians made a lot of goofy crap..

I don't know, it looks more like a cheap "cultist" wallhanger than a 16th century court sword repro.

for one he said the blade is heavy which sounds like it is cheap steel meant to look the part not act the part.

And the solid brass hilt makes me think it is more a cheap knockoff or some cheap fantasy piece.

I know of no court swords solid brass hilts that are so deep in the ucult in their apperance.
