Is there anyone who makes replicas of the ancient Caanaanite sickle-sword? I'd love to get one - Biblical history is one of my many interests...

Another option would be Manning Imperial of Australia: www.manningimperial.com/list.php?category_id=12&group_id=1Their bronze swords tend to be fairly heavy. Their "Canaanite Sword" is the best of their Khopesh-type swords, at 2.75 lbs it's heavy but handles well. Avoid their "Decorated" khopesh, unless you'd like a stylish boat anchor (it's not overweight, it's morbidly obese). In any event I would second the recommendation of Neil Burridge. I would also recommend avoiding Deepeeka's bronze swords, including the khopesh (which, as noted, is not Bronze). But if you don't care that your bronze-age sword isn't made of bronze, I might recommend Scorpion Swords & Knives Khopesh swords. They make two of them, again, not bronze, and not direct copies of any originals, but they're better than the Deepeeka swords by far:

Thanks, guys! Yes, I am looking specifically for bronze. Probably order one from the guy in England when I've got a bit more $$$ - pound vs. dollar, and all that.
