This listing is marked SOLD and is no longer available
Next Gen Mercenary - Oakeshott Type XVa - a nasty thruster, but also a surprisingly good cutter. This sword HAS been used for some soft-target cutting and forms work, and has some minor scratches on the hilt furniture and along the spine of the blade. The edge is, however, pristine. While this blade type is obviously oriented to the thrust, this piece cuts surprisingly well. It is still a diamond cross-section, which is less-forgiving than the lenticular blades such as found on the Reeve listed above. The grip on this sword is something between oxblood and magenta - a reddish brown. New, the piece retails at $800, plus $30 shipping in the CONUS. For this piece, given it's lightly used condition, I'll offer this up at a larger discount - $640, adding $20 to help cover shipping costs within the 48, or we can discuss shipping elsewhere. (That's better than a 20% break over retail.) I tried to get pics of the scratches, but they're a lot less apparent than I even recalled... A couple of scratches along the mid-rib that you can barely make out in the pics...
_________
Payment can be accepted via cashier's check, money order, personal check (reserve the right to hold until funds clear), PayPal (though I'd ask an additional 3% to help offset fees).
Not interested in trades... sorry.

The transaction was simple and fast. I sent him payment on Thursday, he mailed the sword on Monday, and it arrived today. The sword was very nicely packed and arrived as described. I would highly recommend doing business with Aaron!

Thanks a ton, Jonathan!
Every coin has two sides. Jonathan was absolutely awesome to deal with as well.
Honestly, I feel like I may have slighted him a tad... I thought the post office would be closed last Friday as a holiday. Not sure if it was... but I had mail in the box Saturday morning, and I was pretty sure I got Thursday's.
Bottom line is, I'd do business with him again in a heartbeat, and can recommend anyone else do the same.
Enjoy, Jonathan! Hope it serves you well, brother!
