I love the look of it, but a double edge blade is almost never used in one handed weapons. I would personally lop off the top half of the blade and leave the bottom half. I think it would result in a much more balanced look, and would be SO SEXY with a dual skana...

Kind of like this:

And I don't know the size of the original skana but this looks galatine sized to me...

Either way, lovely mantel piece :)
