You could get one sharpened just enough though? Or buy a real blade - my dad had a Napoleonic one complete with nicks where it probably cut some unfortunate Frenchmen down in the field.
It shouldn't be hard to get a sharpened version of any sword. It might however depend on the magazinge or company you buy from.
