Of all of the Final Fantasy-related replicas, this is one of my favorites. The blade is perfect, the wrapped handle is sturdy, the sheath is beautiful, and although it isn't fully-tanged, the steel of the blade extends (in mine, anyway) over halfway into the handle for stability.

(but it isn't actually as long as Sephiroth's; his is like 9 feet!)

I recentlt bought this for my husband, we were in an asian store where he saw a similar one and said how "cool" it was. The store was selling it for twice the price that I bought it for on amazon! When it arrived I couldn't wait for Christmas to give it to him, so I presented it and he was pretty excited. My husband is 6'6" tall, and you really have to be to even get the sword out of the sheath! It's so huge, and the blade is semi-sharp so be aware of theat. He kept is by him and proceded to play with it like a little kid. I'd have to say, it was definitely worth it to see the look on his face.

The blade looks very good. The bohi runs along very nearly the full length of the blade. Unlike what the advertising says, that blade is clearly not high-carbon steel; or at the very least, it's the lower of the 'high' carbon steel varieties. It's okay though - to find a high carbon blade under $100 is unheard of.

The tsuba isn't what Sephiroth had in Advent Children - it's a dragon or sorts instead of being a solid gold square. The tsuka is curved, suggesting the blade was stock cut from a block of steel that was milled into a blade shape instead of being "hand forged." The menuki is small and plastic, making it useless for providing additional grip; it's also plastic and fit for left-handed people (perfect for Sephiroth, actually!). It's half-tang with seemingly unstable meguki (pegs that hold the tang into the tsuka).

Long story short: blade itself looks great; blade fittings look great; the hilt clearly points out the 'prop'-nature of the sword as a whole; the sword is neither "hand forged" nor "high carbon." I highly recommend this sword for prop-usage - for its cost, it's a good deal. Other prop/wall-hangers I've seen are a million times worse and cost in the low 100s instead of ~80.
