Hi all, Found this sword for sale for around $400. Looks fairly modern, but would be curious to know if this could be an antique (pre-1900s) sword, and what kind of sword it is. Scottish basket hilt I think?

That is supposed to be a Scottish basket hilted broad sword. I have serious questions about that one as the wire twist seem slow, crud basket, and wrap material. You could get a nice basket hilt for $400 max. Many go for $200-$300.
