I think it's nice, since there aren't really any other factions that they could give it to, and it gives Rhudel a sword that looks different than the Umbar scimitar. If anything, it should be renamed to "Easterling Falcata".

Also, somewhere out there is a drawing of an easterling holding this type of sword, so Mevans isn't the only one who had the idea.

Just by the way, it was mainly used by Carthage and the Celtic tribes in Spain not the Egyptians. Which I don't really think fits well with the Eastern style of the Easterlings. I rather think the sword resembles a Kukri.
