After 12 years of great service, it is time to let my trusty sword go to its own path. I am selling my Hanwei Side Sword (the old model), I have used it for cutting only once, otherwise I did solo drills with cleaning each time. There are few modifications, that needs mentioning:
1. The blade is sharpened.
2. The S-shaped quillon was straightened, as I found it more appealing and comfortable for using with the left hand.
3. Minior etching was done on the pommel and guard.
4. The ricasso was rounded as the original one is pain in index finger, when holding this way.
5. Minor parts of the quillon were rounded for the same reason.
The sword is as good as new, no rust, no bending, no chips. The pommel and the guard are well polished, the blade is with its original satin finish (I have never found enough time to mirror polish it).
Asking 170$ without shipping. The sword is in EU, but international shipping is no problem.
