Wizard worthy
This sword knows the secret of steel! is so much nicer and bigger in person! Razor sharp and asking to cut and stab all within sword reach. Cuts full gallon jugs in half with barely any aggression. It's what a druid or wizard needs for a battle worthy reliable friend in battle. It's works perfect for cutting pizza and watermelon in times of feast. It has some solid weight to the blade begs for crushing your enemies, the feel and a great grip that women will love as they are driven before me. All leading to a perfect lamitation in the long run. Will recommend for quests and sagas in the future.

Durable yet Powerful Blade
I bought this kriegsmesser because it reminded me of Hawkeye's Yoru from One Piece. It has the best of both worlds of messer and longswords because of versatility and creativity that can be applied with it. You can apply half-swording techniques to this blade while your hand has adequate hand protection. For new swordsmen,the balance is pretty good even though it is a top heavy sword which requires strength and endurance to handle with grace and precision. The blade arrived dull and a little rusted; however, I use my Work Sharp to sharpen the blade and renaissance wax to preserve it for long term storage. It is capable of cutting through plywood, hardened cardboard, and aluminium. The rosewood handle is smooth and beautiful while complimented by the blued fitting. The scabbard is functional and reinforced so you will not have worry about blade damage nor retention.

Quality.
Tight fittings on Sword. No hot spots in handling. Blade blued well. Flexible blade, sharp. Would have loved a sharp back edge.Quality sheath but some side-to-side movement of sword.Standard plastic liners in sheath for fit.Overall, well worth the cost.

Nice new sword for my collection
The packaging was pretty beat up when it arrived, the cardboard felt very cheap, thankfully though nothing else inside was damaged.The sword itself feels very good to hold and swing. It's a bit lighter than what I was expecting, but the quality is great, I especially like the handle; it looks and feels very well made. Looked nice after a quick wipedown with a cloth. Probably my new favorite in my collection.

Best sword in my collection
I love the MMA grosse messer. It is insanely sharp, and it cuts better than any other melee weapon in my collection. The MMA blackened version took me awhile to warm up to, but now that I own a few of them, that's all I'll be buying from now on. I bought the regular bright Cold Steel Grosse Messer and the blade broke in half the first week. It cost $50 more than the MMA version and it didn't last a week. I replaced it with the MMA and I'm much happier with the MMA model. Stainless steel looks pretty, but it's brittle. MMA is more durable, and takes an edge better. Unless you are only interested in an ornamental sword, MMA is better. The MMA handle is also constructed correctly (full tang, with the edges visible along the length of the handle). The bright version did not have that; I can't speak to whether the tang runs the full length of the handle, but it definitely was not as wide as the handle because it wasn't visible along the edges, and that makes it inauthentic. An authentic grosse messer must have a knife handle, which is what makes a messer different from a sword. Cold Steel got it right with the MMA grosse messer.I also am not certain that the bright one that broke was actually made by Cold Steel. It was represented as being manufactured by Cold Steel when I bought it on Amazon, but I suspect it may have been a counterfeit. This is a general gripe that I have with Cold Steel melee weapons: they don't say Cold Steel on them, so who knows if they are counterfeit or not? At any rate, I'm happy with the MMA version.

This is what you should know about this sword
construction on this model is as such cross guard is tightly fitted to tang of blade followed by two hardwood scales affixed to tang with Cutler's rivets threaded rat tail tang approximately 2 1/2 inches in length is solidly welded onto the end of the tang of the sword where the 1 pound steel pommel is threaded on and then fixed with a specialized retaining nut which is not visible and sits flush with the end of the pommel when properly tightened down,this sword can be completely disassembled for maintenance but for all intents and purposes when sword is assembled properly it's strength meets or exceeds a sword that was constructed with a peened on pommel scabbard construction is simple and strong no frog is included? Testing Of this sword by the company that produces them was extensive and can be viewed online ,my personal testing of the sword went as such... hacking through multiple pine 6" x 6" pieces of lumber,smashing multiple construction grade cinderblocks with the pommel, repeatedly trusting point through half inch thick piece of CDX plywood, splitting a DOT approved motorcycle helmet in half and chopping a full-size 500 page phonebook In half per cold steels own torture test videos well I am the first to admit all of these things would constitute gross abuse of the sword but I'm very happy to say that it accomplished all of these tasks without so much as a burr on the edge and no wiggling of the cross guard or pommel, in closing i found this sword to be an excellent value for the amount of money that you pay for it and is able to handle an extreme amount of abuse without failing it is truly a battle ready Weapon that anybody on the opposing end of should fear greatly
