This listing is marked SOLD and is no longer available
He calls this a "Mary Rose" replica, though it is of a style common in the 15th century. The hilt is extremely nice and this is the only replica I know of that has the guard plate attached by rivets through the ummm.... ballocks themselves as is described in many references, but rarely seen in replicas. The blade is single edged (with the false edge beveled for a few inches from the tip) and brightly polished, but not sharp. The blade uses a secondary bevel for the edge.
All in all, a very nice ballock dagger. I got it in trade for some calligraphy work I did, but I already have several nice ballock daggers, and so don't need another!
Peter charges $280 for these as of last year. This one is in mint condition, I'm asking $170 shipping and insurance included in the U.S. I will consider trades. I'm particularly looking for 14th century items.
I'll accept paypal or money orders. PM me with interest.[/b]
