Hello all,
We have a nice old 19thC Mende sword up for grabs; these don't come onto the UK market that often so we thought we'd offer it on the forum so that any Anglo saxon types who might be interest gets a chance to grab it!
The blade measures 70cm x 3cm at the hilt and is local manufacture with a crude hand finish, that said, it is very solid with good flex and has been sharpened in the past. The hilt is wood with a steel pommel cap and bolster. There is some chipping and splits to the wood but nothing that weakens it in any way. Hilt and blade very firm. Overall length: 85cm
Price £150.00 plus £10 uk shipping. Rest of the world shipping is £35.00- apologies for this, the Royal mail has increased its charges due to the new regime governing parcel size etc.
