I won't be able to get my summer jobs back this season. In any case I am still intent on getting a handgun when I am 21 and more importantly, I need to buy new clothes, more food, save up for next year's college textbooks and start amassing $ for a project. That and I don't use these blades no more. So I'm lettin' go of these... Prices including shipping for continental US. If international or Alaska/Hawaii, we can work somethin' out. Paypal and Money order accepted. I will consider trades (focused on certain things, but I'm open-minded)... First claim & paid, gets it.

What I'm sellin'...

Zheng Wu Oxtail saber / Niu-wei-dao ---- $320
Kris Cutlery custom Kalis Taluseko ------- $750

Descriptions:

The Dao was made by a smith from Zheng Wu and Kenneth Hakegard. The sword is used and the handle did fall apart at one point. I have repaired it but it doesn't look as nice as it did when I got it. I am selling it for $320, but it took me about $530 to get it (blade + shipping + wiring the $). So consider it a major discount. The blade is good, the handle is uglier, the sheath has small defects. Blade has been used twice. Comes with pretty box.
The kalis was made by Kris Cutlery as a custom length sword back when they did customs - they no longer sell kalis, nor do they make customs. The scabbard is made by Jose Albovias Jr., a renown restorer of Moro weapons and sheath-maker. This has been used to cut paper and open an envelope.

I will consider trades or trade+$ for:

IF there is really no interest for these two fine blades, they'll go to ebay.
I just need to recuperate some money as I pay for necessities and head in another direction.
