You might think that, but most of these are called wall hangers for a reason.
Many of them have rat-tail tangs or are made with stainless steel. They might feel balanced, but are liable to snap if you swing them around.
And if someone wanted to check if it is a cheap wall hanger or a replica that could be swung, they might want to do more than just look at it on the wall.
Yes.
In particular, you ask questions like "what type of steel is this made out of" and "what kind of tang does it have".
