I was at a show a few years back and saw a gentllemen walking this sword through the show.I had a good ideal that it was a good sword because he had three or four dealers in tow.The dealers were all talking the sword down. The very tip is broke, the blade has finger prints,the paint is worn on the scabbard, will you trade for something on my table the same old lines when you have something they want. After the dealers left I asked him if he was selling the sword and he stated yes but he wanted to find out what it was worth.I told him I would like a chance to buy it and gave him my #( so did the dealers). A month later he called me gave me a price and I bought it. When I went to pick it up he told me that he had offered it to the dealers first but they were only offering half of what it is worth. Gary
