Time to thin-out the collection… I have four swords and a book for sale--no trade offers, please. All pricing includes shipment via UPS Ground to the lower 48; the book will ship USPS Priority Mail to all of the U.S. I will only sell domestically--sorry, no international buyers.
The swords have never been used for cutting and have been well-maintained through the years just sitting on my office wall. Any notable marks are detailed below.
First, an Albion Castellan. It has the standard grip in what Albion calls Light Brown. The leather is closer to a walnut color. The cross and pommel have no casting defects--the only Albion I have without such marks. The blade has a pair of burrs or small notches about 2-3' down--it's otherwise unblemished. Asking $800 shipped and PayPal'd.
Next, an Albion Templar. The grip is dark brown. There are a few casting flaws on the cross and one or two on the pommel. The blade is ever so slightly more polished than the other Albions I have, and it's spot- and nick-free. Asking $675 shipped and PayPal'd.
The last Albion is the Knight. It's hard parting with this one--it has the most nicely-executed fit and finish of any sword I have. The grip is dark brown and the cross and pommel have just a couple of casting flaws each. The blade is satin and pristine. Asking $700 shipped and PayPal'd.
I have a project sword for sale--A MRL/Windlass Kingdom of Heaven Sword of Tiberias. The grip is hemp twine-wrapped and is very comfortable in hand. The sword is solid and nice-looking overall, but the pommel is held on by a threaded nut (makes disassembly easier…). The blade has a nice greyish tone, but the fuller is a bit wavy. The cross and blade have quite a few dark spots and some scratches, but no active rust. Asking $125 shipped and PayPal'd.
The book is the hardcover edition of The Complete Bladesmith by Jim Hrisoulas. It is in excellent (like new) condition. Asking $25 shipped via USPS Priority Mail and PayPal'd.
I do have a few other (higher-res) photos available... For fastest response, you can e-mail me at jim(at) sporeboy.com. I will check PMs as well.
