Dear Lisa, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. The presented object appears to be a modern Chinese sword measurement 46 inches in length. The blade is shaped like a one-edged Dao sword. The workmanship and the condition of the surface indicate that this sword was made in the 20th century. Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market. This piece is in good condition and no severe damage is visible in the images provided. A fair market estimation would be between 30 to 60 USD. This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary. With kind regards, George
