Review of the Hanwei Cossack Shashka

I was looking at this blade for years and never was sure if I should get it or not. But finally I got my hands on one. Two points spoke against it. The price and the fact that it is a Hanwei blade. Not that I condemn their blades, but you have to be careful because somehow their quality varies from model to model.
But i convinced my self to give it a try.
The overall impression is pretty good and i cant wait to test it.
It has lovely details, but also some details that are not as properly made as I expected. The devil always hides in the detail ;)
We will see if the sabre is worth its price and i will give you an update.
Details:

Material: 60CrMnA spring steel
Length: 94,5 cm
Blade length: 80 cm
