Klingon sword used in two Colorado Springs heists

I collect various fantasy style swords and the one used in the robbery is not a Klingon sword. I know cause I own one and those things are huge. They are about 42 inches in length and can not be held easy in one hand. Also it's a solid curved piece of metal with a point on each end, to points about a third of the way into the weapon, and does not have a ragged edge look at all on it. What the guy had in the photo of the robber was nothing like it at all.

Yeah, I'm that big of a geek.

It looks more like a Chinese weapon to me, but I could be mistake.

Didn;t Worf use a smaller weapon in First Contact?

Yes but it was a single blade curved dagger that looked more like a small falcata with an extra blade point coming out it prior to the the end. It wasn't shaped like the one in the surveillance photo.
The reason they called it that is possibly some replica dealer sold a miniature blade claiming it to be a bat'leth or even the Sword of Kahless but neither look like the one used in the robbery. But that has never stopped replica dealers from seling them as one.
