Very nice, thanks! There's actually a shop in Finland that sells all kinds of weapons, armor and clothes from ancient Greece to American civil war and they also have a replica of Ulfberht sword. The swords they sell are not decorative and are based on archaeological finds. They are exact replicas of the original swords (crafted with modern methods) and in principle you could sharpen one and go back in time to a medieval battle and fight with them. In my book, as a medieval enthusiast, knowing that they are the real thing is exhilarating.
