I bought this from another forumite many years ago, but now it must make give up its space to make room and money. Chime in whenever you can Phil. The blade was made by a custom knife guy who sold it at a gunshow I think. It is a very solid blade, heavy too.... at 4lbs for a sword of this size. It has thick blade. I wouldn't call it sharpened, but there is an edge. The blade has an antiqued rough forged look. A dragon is engraved on both sides of the blade. The grip is brown rayskin I think. There is a seam/patch on one side though, like the original piece of rayskin wasn't big enough. The guard rattles a little because it is loose, but the sword still rings solid.

Overall: 33"
Blade Length: 20.5"
Blade Width: 2 3/8" at hilt - 3 3/8" at widest (not including spikes)
POB: 5.25"
Weight: 4lbs
Grip: 9.75"
Thickness: 3/8"

I don't remember how much this sword was, but I think it was $200-250. But I will sell it for $100 and I will pay shipping (CONT US only). It has done nothing but sit inside a guncase for a long time. Doesn't get handles much.

PM or email at VayDuong@aol.com. I can accept check, MO, or paypal.
