That's a very nice sword, I have one sitting in the house, very nice in weight and balance. Steer clear of the red watersong broadsword though,...
Hate to say it, but if it's functional intended, unless that function is a letter opener, then it really shouldn't be stainless steel.
With nothing but your own lack of experience with the formal uses of the weapon to tell you whether you were properly wielding it. Even if you do...
