i'll have to agree, i myself had a friend make me an awesome sword...for only fifty dollars, custom designed for live steel fighting...it has the potential to get rather sharp made out of tempered steel,(if one was inclined to file it some edges)however after accidently stabbing him in the eye and slicing his tear duct with a dulled, pointed blade, he made sure the edges were nice and round...
he had a make shift forge made in his garage, they did armor too!...those were fun times.
