Very likely in the next set of TP skins (tho it could be a gem shop item).

Pommel style makes it more like a sabre or scimitar than katana.

Actually it exactly resembles a saber.

Noted. I figured scimitars and sabres would look more or less similar since he mentioned both. Even so, the sabres handles are far too short to compare to this, aren’t they? Not to mention the hand guard…

Well, that’s artistic license. Also I just nabbed one image of one saber to show the blade, as that’s what you were contesting. Scimitars have much sharper curves so I don’t think the OP image really matches one (Google “images scimitar” to see, this is the page I got https://www.google.com/search?q=images+scimitar&biw=1442&bih=910&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=AN8vVZeIHoulNvy9gZAK&ved=0CB0QsAQ ).

Yeah exactly. That’s why i think among the types of sword mentioned in this thread, I believe the OP weapon skin resembles a katana most

I’d actually like it if there was a little more reflective shine to the blade, and a misty red glow wouldnt hurt either

checked the thing with the code in game.. the red glow is pulsating. Also there is a GS with a similar design and yellow glow…aswell a seriosly creepy looking LB also in that design pattern.. seems that set of weapons is something ill spend my money on.
