I am offering the Privateer Cutlass For a limited time for $2000 ($1000 off) +shipping from now until August 1st.

Here is a link to the page: Privateer Cutlass Gallery

I hate to let this one go but I have some expenses coming and need to move this piece.
Let me know if you are interested.

For any other man's,
Nor that I will be ashamed
Of my work torn hands-

For I have chosen the path I tread
Knowing it would be steep,
And I will take the joys thereof
And the consequences reap.

Or you can make me an offer.

Also, this piece will be featured in a article that I wrote on Ben in the next issue of Pirates Magazine. Its a nice 3 page spread on Ben as a maker and features a review of this sword with some nice close ups. The issue will be available in about 10-15 days @ www.PiratesMagazine.com or at your local Barnes and Noble or Borders.

The current issue features an article on Kevin Cashen and his work. Look for "Blades of the Brethren". Thats my column.

If you want this sword I would get it while you can. As soon as the magazine hits news stands it will be sold!

Cheers,

This offer ends Wednesday 12:00 am PST after which the price will be going up to $3400 until I finish the scabbard and then it will go up again.

Thanks,
Ben

The window of opportunity has, alas, closed and this piece will be once again ascending to it's rightful price.

I generally don't go ga-ga for anything later than the 16th C, and not a longsword. But I have to admit-- this cutlass is absolutely gorgeous. I really love the detail of the shell guard. The blade looks nicely-proportioned, too.
