I am heading to Fort Zachary Taylor this friday and I needed something to wear on my side. I wanted to make something subtle and sweet. I left the edge blunt on this for the time being. If I still have this sword when I return, I plan to grind more off the edge making it lighter and adding a sharp edge to it.

Thanks for looking.
This sword is now for sale. It has a brown leather sheath that can come with or not. I also, would offer to make a drag or a metal tip for the scabbard if you wish.
I am asking $600 for the sword and $675 with the scabbard. $715 with metal tip on the scabbard. This is a huge savings. The sword alone would retial at $675 and the scabbard, as is, would be $112.00. The tip regularly adds $60 to the scabbard price.
I will also engrave a name or small item on the blade free of charge.
I will donate a portion of the sale to this forum.
