unless it's something rediculously proportioned like "Jon's Paladin" sword,the blade looks to be about 3 foot long give or take. if that is the case,as regards the shape: 1) Hilt should be longer to counterbalence the weight of the blade.(a well made blade must have balance.) 2) some inlaid design on the doorknob looking things on the guard. (a well made blade must look the part ) 3) more ornate handgrip.(a well made blade must be comfortable) 4) blade looks too round.(a well made blade must be sharp.) Note: blade looks too long to be a stadard sword, but don't change that.
