You need a Gold membership or higher to ask for valuation. And you can't link to non-supporting vendors.

I don't believe linking to active sales on a non-supporting website is allowed.

Doesnt look antique. Looks more BudK-esque... like a decorative/fantasy dagger made in the last 10-20 years.

For what it's worth, technically OP didn't post to a sale thread. The "sale" thread specifically says dont buy this, not for sale...
 
I would be surprised if it's anything more than a silver plated wall hanger, I don't see how one could hold it.

I know, I clicked on it too, but I think the idea behind the rules in place is to prevent folks from sharing outside links to non-supporting vendors (in this case Etsy) with preventing non-paying members from selling through subterfuge as just a bonus.
 
Technically he is considering all offers. Sounds like it's for sale. He says don't add to cart until we agree on price.

Actually yes he did. The page says "do not buy this until agreed upon price."
 
Looks like a fantasy knife , but don't know why the silver ...um, werewolves ? :rolleyes:

I am not trying to sell through this forum, if there is a way to just post a picture i will prefer to do that,
In regards to wall hanger, i have some idea how wall hangers are made, not this one, it was handmade with attention to details, and it feels different than anything that was mass produced for tourists, not to mention it is tested several times and it is silver, another thing is the stamp on the back can't find it anywhere.
Thanks

It would be helpful to see quality images of the blade. It looks like a recently made decorative item. Usually, they produce kama (Caucasion) style daggers, and while I do not know what this is supposed to be, you will find many similarly constructed kama daggers on the auction sites selling for a song.

Actually he says " Please don't purchase this listing unless we agreed on price " and also says he will consider all reasonable offers... it's a for sale thread linked to another site as far as I'm concerned, we're done here.
