Often, regulations prohibit any kind of sporting equipment which can be used as a weapon for carry-on, let alone sporting equipment from a combat sport.
I don’t think any airline would allow you to take that sword as carry-on luggage into the cabin with you. However, you should be able to check it in as luggage (but it may be considered oversize luggage, which may be an extra fee). Just be sure to pack it well (you can find info about packing actual swords as luggage online, which may be helpful).
The exact size limits for carry-on will depend on the airline, but your sword probably exceeds most airlines’. For example:
-
Qantas’s maximum dimension for a piece of carry-on luggage on a domestic flight is 115 cm (about 3′ 9″)
-
Jetstar’s is 56 cm (about 1′ 10″)
