I'd be careful about carry that double-edged knife in Texas, though, as I've been advised (in my CHL classes) that a double-edged knife is considered a dagger.
The Texas Penal code relating to knives is as follows:
(6) "Illegal knife" means a: (A) knife with a blade over five and one-half inches; hand instrument designed to cut or stab another by being thrown;(C) dagger, including but not limited to a dirk, stiletto, and poniard;(D) bowie knife;(E) sword; or(F) spear.

If it doesn't go out I would probably wear it at the Ren Fairs and with 3' to 6' double edge items around the dagger shouldn't be an issue.
I know you're looking for trades, but I don't suppose you'd consider that double-edge beauty for sale? I'd love to wear it or one like it at our upcoming highland games.
