This probably won`t surprise anyone, but there is a very reputable knife company that has one of corkum`s swords for sale. How they got the sword from him is perfectly legal, they either bought it, or have it on consignment. What`s interesting isthat this sword is one that he I paid for many years ago. Corkum told me that someone else had changed his mind, so he offered it to me. I paid in full, as then he was still getting a few knives out to people, so I had no idea about what would happen in the future. This same sword was offered I found out to a good friend of mine too, several years later, but the fellow didn`t have the money for it. I had heard that corkum was in Maryland, but didnt really give it a moments thought.
