This listing is marked SOLD and is no longer available
Up for sale is my Bayeux and DBK scabbard, which I've had in my possession since 2007 (at which time I didn't have a toddler (or wife for that matter!)) Unfortunately, the sword and scabbard have to go.
Asking price is $1000, shipped.
I've always wanted this sword to have an aged and battle-worn look, as if it has been in the field and back. I've allowed a nice patina to age gently on the pommel and guard, with oilings and polishings happening every six months or so.
The blade itself, however, has not had the same treatment with more regular oiling/polishing so it looks brand new...no "patina" or even fingerprints. I've been careful never to touch it without gloves or protection. For full disclosure, I had purchased the scabbard from Brian at DBK in 2009 after the sword took a fall that put two small nicks about 2.75 inches north of the Albion mark. These are very tiny, being about 1/10 of a millimeter deep and 1/4" apart, but they can be felt by running a fingernail over the blade's edge.
UPS Ground shipping included within the lower 48 states. No overseas shipping, please. I do enough business outside of the country to not expect much from international customs.
