I bought a hand and a half or bastard Sword at a renasance fair several years ago. It's fully tanged, made by a professional blacksmith. It's not a pretty thing, not even very shiny, kinda dullish black with a quasi edge....However, he had an awsome sales angle. He put the blade point first in the ground and jumped on the flat of it a couple times, to show it's flexability, after wich he cut through a cinderblock to show it's strength.
Not that that has anything to do with the orginal post, it just reminded me I had the thing.
