Please help to decide if its good enough.


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone. This is the first post here and I am pretty sure it is also the last one. 

 

A friend is willing to buy a sword from a guy. I told my friend to wait as this sword seems to be not only a fake but really bad steel quality. I have very little knowledge about swords, steel etc but i just see that the sword is not worth  250 pound. In my opinion it is worth less i have found similar swords costing about 100-120 pounds but in much much better condition. It is very sharp and feel solid without moving parts or noises. I took the sword apart and put it back together. It comes with two brass hammers, an oil and something else that is wrapped up in a shape of a round thing.

 

Can you please help and tell us how much is this sword is worth? I know that it is worth as much as the buyer wants to pay but....

 

Please see the pictures. I can post more photos if you want to.

 

Thanks!

Actually, Chris, the Hamon isn’t running out, simply because there isn’t any. What you’re seeing is a large layer of metal from the Damascus and it looks conspicuous because the blade is so heavily acid etched.

 

By the way, i meant "not worth". Dunno why the "not"got ditched.
