Hi all. Made an extra one of these, and thought Id put it out on the forum, since its been a while.
Modern Egyptian Khopesh Sword
History:
While originally these ancient swords were used against the Egyptians, they were so impressed by them that they adopted them as their own and the Khopesh eventually became the very symbol of Egyptian authority, with two such swords even found in the tomb of the legendary Pharaoh/Mummy Tutankhamun (c 1350 BC).
Shop Details:
1095 High Carbon Spring Steel. Steel is Heat Hardened & quenched in oil. Heat Tempered @ 500 degrees for 2 hours, and letting it air cool.

Sale price for this one is $199 ($25 off our website price), plus $18 shipping fee, if shipped in the US. For shipments outside the US, e-mail me the shipping name and address, then I can quote you a shipping cost. Black leather sleeve is available upon request for an additional $39.
