For Sale: I am selling a large portion of cutting weapons from my
personal collection. There are only one of each including some antique
swords and some old DEL TIN swords with KRUPP55 German steel. These
things are not new, but the prices reflect this on many items that have
long been off the commercial market. Sold from my website
www.brookhartdesigns.com

I hope the decision to sell these items wasn't influenced through financial concerns and you just want to get rid of them, but in today's economic climate...
Also, Nathan, I don't recall ever really addressing you specially before, but I remember seeing you write something about regretting never buying a Windlass messer. Lo and behold, I see what may be one of those in the website's "Medieval Swords" section, at the very bottom for $160. Admittedly I don't know what one of those looks like and don't know that this is one of those, but given the seller the odds aren't bad.

Additional:
I've spent some time looking over the cheaper swords and daggers for sale here (What can I say? I'm a cheapskate) and attempting to locate them on Kult of Athena to compare pricing and such.
What I found has been encouraging. You can locate quite a few of these items on KOA's website, and those I compared were indeed cheaper. This varies quite a bit, with one item being merely $4 cheaper (though if that's a one-of-a-kind prototype it's still a steal) while another I found was almost $100 less than its brand new KOA counterpart. I will gladly tolerate a little rust and a few nicks at that price. 
Disclaimer: Like I said, I was focused on the cheaper offerings. I only compared those I could find and looked interesting to me. I can't speak to the pricing of the more expensive ones, and I skipped a lot of those I that weren't to my taste.

Mr. Brookhart,
Is that a Windlass Loiten Viking sword I see in the "viking and saxon swords" section? And for only $175?!!! Wow! If I remember correctly this one had a damascus blade. Hmmmm... That is one killer deal if I am correct...
